Chapter Seven. Fire, the Gāyatrī, the Trivṛt, the Rathantara, spring, the vital breath, the constellations, and the Vasus — from before, they rise, they heat, they rain, they sing praise, they reenter, and they behold through the inner eye. That which is inconceivable, formless, profound, the experiencer of the guṇas, fearless, ever free, the lord of yogins, omniscient, bountiful, immeasurable, without beginning or end, glorious, unborn, wise, beyond description, the creator of all, the Self of all, the enjoyer of all, the ruler of all, the innermost of all.

Same theme, different voices
God can be realized through truth alone.
We have been given this human life to understand the all-pervading, omnipresent God. This knowledge can only be given by someone who has themselves realized God. Life becomes truly happy only after meeting such a God-realized person.
Seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness first, and all other things will be added to you.
God is the enduring one, and everything else is transient.
