यस्मिन् द्यौः पृथिवी चान्तरिक्षमोतं

yasmin dyauḥ pṛthivī cāntarikṣamotaṃ
manaḥ saha prāṇaiśca sarvaiḥ .
tamevaikaṃ jānatha ātmānamanyā vāco

5 In Him are woven heaven, earth and the space between and the mind with all the sense-organs. Know that non-dual Atman alone and give up all other talk. He is the bridge to Immortality.

Sri Shankara’s Commentary (Bhashya) translated by S. Sitarama Sastri

Com.—As the “Immortal” cannot be easily grasped by the mind, the repetition is for the purpose of making it more easily cognisable. He, the immortal Brahman, in whom Dyouh, earth, and antariksha are centred, as also the mind with the other instruments; know him, O disciples as “the one,” the support of all; the Atman, i.e., the internal principle of yourselves and all living beings; having known that, leave off all other speech of the nature of “Apara vidya” as also all Kar ma with their aids elucidated by it; for, this, i.e., the knowledge of the Atman is the road to the attaintment of emancipation, the bridge as it were by which the great ocean of Samsara is crossed, as another Sruti says “having known him thus, one travels beyond death; there is no other road to emancipation.”
