ble matter all this visible creation was made by God Himself
(and by none else) and He, pervading the entire universe, mani-
fested Himself. That Great Architect is delightful and pleasing,
by attaining whom one attains bliss (immense pleasure). If He,
pervading in the universal heart, had not been All-bliss,
how could one breathe and live. Verily when one attains this
invisible, formless (bodiless), Indescribable, supportless (self-su-
pporting), fearless Supreme Soul, only then he becomes fear-
less. But when one entertains the least doubt in His existence
(in all this universe, in his body and in the soul within), he can-
not be always wholly fearless, but fears (from powerful forces).
The wise, knowing and realising Him alone, becomes fearless.
In this connection it is also said in the succeeding verse.

law; the sun rises through His fear; the fire burns and the clouds
rain through His fear; and the fifthly death also runs to take the
lives of persons through His fear.
