ज्ञानं ज्ञेयं तथा ज्ञाता त्रितयं नास्ति वास्तवम्, अज्ञानाद्भाति यत्रेदं सोऽहमस्मि निरञ्जनः। ॥15॥

jñānaṁ jñeyaṁ tathā jñātā tritayaṁ nāsti vāstavam, ajñānād-bhāti yatredaṁ so'ham-asmi nirañjanaḥ. (15)

This verse teaches that the concepts of knowledge, the one who knows, and what is known are not real in their essence. Instead, the true self is pure and unblemished, and it is only through ignorance that we perceive these distinctions.
