न पृथ्वी न जलं नाग्निर्न वायुर्द्यौर्न वा भवान्, एषां साक्षिणमात्मानं चिद्रूपं विद्धि मुक्तये। ॥3॥

na pṛthvī na jalaṁ nāgnirna vāyurdyaurna vā bhavān, eṣāṁ sākṣiṇamātmānaṁ cidrūpaṁ viddhi muktaye. (3)

This verse teaches that you are not just the physical elements of the world, but rather the deeper essence of your being, which is pure awareness. To find true freedom, recognize yourself as the observer of everything around you.
