20. Men of vast knowledge say that the being invested with bodies created by Thyself is a product of an Amsa (portion or ray) of Thy Omnipotent Self, not limited by anything that may be called cause or effect. Having thus examined and conclusively understood the nature of the individual being (Jiva) they with perfect faith contemplate while on earth Thy feet to which all the righteous acts sanctioned by the Vedas are to be offered and which release them from Samsara.
