**************************************
Esa Sarvesvara esa sarvajna eso-'ntaryamy-esa
yonith sarvasya prabha-vapyayau hi bhutanam.
**************************************
word by meaning : -
**********************
esah - this one;
sarvesvarah - is the ruler of all;
easah sarvahnah - this ( is ) Omniscient;
esah antaryami - this ( is ) all Knower;
easah yonih - this ( is ) the Source;
sarvasya - of all;
prabhava apyayau - origin and dissolution;
hi - verily;
bhutanam - of all beings.
*********************
The sum of Mantram : -
"This is the Lord of all, this is the Knower of all, this is the inner Controller, this is the Source of all.
And, this is that from which all things originate and in which they finally dissolve themselves."
*******************************************************************************
Discussion-1.

Continuing the explanation of the state of Consciousness in deep-sleep-state, the Rishi-s of the Upanishad-s are giving us one more extra mantram.
Probably, the Master understands that it very difficult for an ordinary man, to get in himself sufficient detachment from his own Ego, to become aware of his condition in the deep-sleep-state.

It is. indeed, very easy to understand the personality that we are in the waking-state.
It is difficult for an ordinary person to understand the dreamerin him or her; and yet, it is possible, though with a little bit of conscious effort, to grasp this personality.
But, it is indeed, very difficult for an ordinary person to understand the 'sleeper' in him or her, the Ego at the time of sllep, because, to all of us, knowledge is only in terms of the reports which we receive through the sense-organs.

know the self, know the self in Nature, know the self in Jiva, Further Oneness.

Everyone in this family has studied the holy scriptures and the spiritual way.” So Svetaketu went to a teacher and studied the scriptures for twelve years. He returned home very proud of his intellectual knowledge. His father observed him and said, “My boy, you seem to have a high opinion of yourself; you are proud of your learning. But did you ask your teacher for the spiritual knowledge that enables you to hear the unheard, think the unthought and know the unknown?” “What is that knowledge, Father?” asked Svetaketu. “Just as by knowing a lump of clay, everything that is made of clay can be known, since any differences are only words, and the essential reality is clay. In the same way, by knowing a piece of gold, all that is made of gold can be known, since any differences are only wo...
