It is only the hallow that is mistakenly proud

Of itself, rather than the water that filled it.

Therefore, when the water dries up

The hollow becomes  impoverished.                                       ....23

 

The human body is really like the hallow water bed;

The spirit (pure energy) is like the pure clean water  of the spring; Although there are innumerable such hallows

The essences is the same in everyone.                                  ....24

 

Therefore, you, who are without a beginning,

I say to you, merciful one,

To destroy the mountain of ignorance

Please become the thunderbolt of Indra                               ....25

  

Until  now, such hollows (beings)

Have existed in large numbers, on this earth.

Many more exist even now,

And, in the future, as the goes by, many more will come      ...26

    

Each such hollow (being)

Is given a separate and different name and appearance;

That is how in this world, They are identified.                      ...27

In terms of "you and me" is not proper;

Because. as there is no duality

That itself is most surely, the

 Spirit                                                                                      ….28

Truly encompasses the whole world,

Then, the "you and  me" the duality concept,

How can it possibly be entertained?                                     ....29

                                                                     

Water latent in the clouds

Is all the same;

But when it descends upon the earth,

It assumes different  forms4                                                 ….30
