c9.s6.t3.2
For perfect knowledge, there is no world and therefore also no transmigration of the Soul. According to the highest truth the Soul cannot wander, because it is the omnipresent, that is, spaceless, Brahman itself. But this the Soul does not know: what prevents its knowing is the Upâdhis which veil from the Soul its own proper nature; these Upâdhis it regards as belonging naturally to its own Self, while in truth they are to be referred to the non-Ego and therefore like the whole world of plurality are non-existent and without reality.
