+\textbf{24. I am verily Brahman,$^1$ being equanimous, quiescent and by nature
+absolute Existence, Knowledge and Bliss. I am not the body$^2$ which is
+non-existence itself. This is called true Knowledge by the wise.}
+
+{\small \textit{$^1$I am verily Brahman} --- `I,' the Self or Âtman, is
+Brahman, as there is not even a single characteristic differentiating the two.
+In other words, there are no two entities as Âtman and Brahman; it is the same
+entity Âtman that is sometimes called Brahman.
+
+When a person makes an enquiry into the real nature of this external world he
+is led to one ultimate reality which he called Brahman. But an enquiry into the
+nature of the enquirer himself reveals the fact that there is nothing but the
+Âtman, the Self, wherefrom the so-called external world has emanated. Thus he
+realizes that what he so long called Brahman, the substratum of the universe,
+is but his own Self, it is he himself. So it si said: `All this is verily
+Brahman, this Âtman is Brahman' (\textit{Mând. Up. 2}).
+
+$^2$\textit{I am not the body } --- I am neither the gross, subtle nor the
+causal body.
