189. One’s learning to abide as the indestructible existence-consciousness 

“I am,” having known it to be different from the existence of the body, 

is  alone true learning, 

(the supreme science or paravidya). 

Abiding thus, 

having clearly known this 

existence-consciousness, and 

having thereby subsided  in Self, 

is alone the state of true knowledge (jnana). 

193. The knowledge of one’s own Self, 

“I am”, 

alone is true knowledge (jnana). 

Whatever knowledge one has acquired of anything other than one-self, 

is only ignorance (ajnana). 

Know that all that is seen by one who has first known himself, will not 

appear to him as different from himself.
