क्व प्रारब्धानि कर्माणि जीवन्मुक्तिरपि क्व वा, क्व तद्विदेहकैवल्यं निर्विशेषस्य सर्वदा। ॥2॥

kva prārabdhāni karmāṇi jīvanmuktirapi kva vā, kva tad-videha-kaivalyaṁ nirviśeṣasya sarvadā. (2)

This verse expresses a sense of unity and oneness, suggesting that concepts like past actions, liberation in life, and liberation in death do not apply to the true self, which is beyond all distinctions and separations. It emphasizes the idea that the essence of being is untouched by worldly experiences or outcomes.
