The one in the eye, the wanderer in dreams, the sleeping one, and that which is beyond sleep— / these are his four states; greater than these is the fourth state. / With one quarter Brahman moves in the three, and with three quarters he moves in the higher. / For the sake of experiencing truth and untruth, the Great Self assumes duality—the Great Self assumes duality.

Thus ends the seventh lesson in the Maitrāyaṇī Upaniṣad.
