When a man sees the whole variety of beings as resting in the One, and spreading forth from That alone, he then becomes Brahman.

When one sees the separate existence of beings as resting in the one, and their expansion as coming from that alone, then one attains Brahman.

A third form of true vision: when one sees that the many separate beings all rest in the one, and that their unfolding into variety comes from that one alone, then one becomes Brahman, or attains it. The verse holds unity and multiplicity together, much as the cosmic vision of the eleventh chapter did. The diversity of the world is not denied but understood as the spreading forth of a single reality. Traditions differ on whether this means identity with Brahman or entry into its presence, but all see it as the culmination of insight.
