विश्वं स्फुरति यत्रेदं तरङ्गा इव सागरे, तत्त्वमेव न सन्देहश्चिन्मूर्ते विज्वरो भव। ॥5॥

viśvaṁ sphurati yatredaṁ taraṅgā iva sāgare, tat-tvam-eva na sandehaścinmūrte vijvaro bhava. (5)

This verse speaks to the idea that the universe arises from pure consciousness, much like waves come from the ocean. It encourages you to find peace by letting go of restless thoughts and emotions.
