This justice (Dharma) is like honey to all beings, and all beings are like honey to this justice. (The same with) the shining, immortal being who is in this justice, and the shining, immortal being identified with justice in the body. (These four) are but this Self. This (Self-knowledge) is (the means of) immortality; this (underlying unity) is Brahman; this (knowledge of Brahman) is (the means of becoming) all.
