To know that the Atma, which is the goal of realisation, is devoid of sleep, birth, name, form and so on, that It is eternally Self-effulgent, Nitya swayamprakasha, to know this is to transcend all Vikaras, or agitations of the mind. Attempting to curb the mind without the aid of discrimination, or to make known to man the unreality of Vishaya, objects, is like the attempt to empty the ocean by means of a blade of grass, foolish and fruitless. Be firmly fixed in the conviction that the world is a myth and then you can aspire for Prashanti and Abhaya, Peace and Fearlessness. (UV, pp. 28-29)
