नाहं मृतो न जीवामि न सन्नासन्न सन्मयः ।
नेदं मे नैव चान्यन्मे नमो मह्यमहं बृहत् ॥ १५ ॥

nāhaṃ mṛto na jīvāmi na sannāsanna sanmayaḥ |
nedaṃ me naiva cānyanme namo mahyamahaṃ bṛhat || 15 ||

I am not dead (because my soul is immortal);nor can I be living (because the soul is not connected with life). I am not a reality (as the body), nor an unreality (composed of spiritual essence only); nor I am a material or aerial body (being neither this body nor Vital air). Neither am I of this world or any other, but self-same ego—the Great.
