अर्थMeaning
'That Self is indeed Brahman, consisting of knowledge, mind, life, sight, hearing, earth, water, wind, ether, light and no light, desire and no desire, anger and no anger, right or wrong, and all things. Now as a man is like this or like that , according as he acts and according as he behaves, so will he be:--a man of good acts will become good, a man of bad acts, bad. He becomes pure by pure deeds, bad by bad deeds. 'And here they say that a person consists of desires. And as is his desire, so is his will; and as is his will, so is his deed; and whatever deed he does, that he will reap.

व्याख्याVyakhya
'वह यह आत्मा ब्रह्म है: विज्ञानमय, मनोमय, प्राणमय, चक्षुर्मय, श्रोत्रमय, पृथिवीमय, जलमय, वायुमय, आकाशमय, तेजोमय और अतेजोमय, काममय और अकाममय, क्रोधमय और अक्रोधमय, धर्ममय और अधर्ममय, सर्वमय। इसीलिए कहते हैं कि यह 'इदंमय' (इस प्रत्यक्ष से बना) और 'अदोमय' (उस परोक्ष से बना) है। जैसा करता है, जैसा आचरण करता है, वैसा ही होता है: अच्छा करने वाला अच्छा होता है, पाप करने वाला पापी होता है; पुण्य कर्म से पुण्यवान् होता है और पाप कर्म से पापी। कुछ कहते हैं कि यह पुरुष काममय ही है। जैसी उसकी कामना होती है, वैसा ही संकल्प होता है; जैसा संकल्प होता है, वैसा ही कर्म करता है; और जैसा कर्म करता है, वैसा ही (फल) पाता है।'
