उदाराः सर्व एवैते ज्ञानी त्वात्मैव मे मतम् | आस्थितः स हि युक्तात्मा मामेवानुत्तमां गतिम्
udārāḥ sarva evaite jñānī tvātmaiva me matam . āsthitaḥ sa hi yuktātmā māmevānuttamāṃ gatim
诚然，所有这些（奉献者）都是高尚的，但智者即是我的真我（Atman），此乃我的见解。因为他心意坚定，唯独以我为至高无上的目标。
All of these, indeed, are noble, but the man of Knowledge is the very Self. (This is) My opinion. For, with a steadfast mind, he is set on the path leading to Me alone who am the super-excellent Goal.
其他三种奉献者也受主喜爱，他们都是高尚的灵魂。但智者（Jnani）尤其亲爱，因为他心意坚定，将心专注于梵（Brahman）。他不需要任何世俗之物，只求至高无上的存在。他只将梵视为最高目标，并修行“我即梵”（Ahamgraha Upasana）的冥想，努力证悟他与至高自性（Atman）的同一性。因此，我将智者视为我的真我。
Are not the other three kinds of devotees dear to the Lord They are. They are all noble souls. But the wise man is exceedingly dear because he has a steady mind he has fixed his mind on Brahman. He does not want any worldly object? but only the Supreme Being. He seeks Brahman alone as the supreme goal. He practises Ahamgraha Upasana (meditation on the Self as the all). He tries to realise that he is identical with the Supreme Self. Therefore I regard a wise man as My very Self. (Cf.II.49)
