Seventh Chapter
A man must realize that the whole creation is nothing but a manifestation of God. God pervades the entire creation, like cluster of yarn beads, formed by knots on a string. In elements such as earth, water, fire, etc., in forms such as the sun and the moon, etc., and only God pervades in actions, in modes of goodness, passion and ignorance etc. He manifests Himself as the absolute, as soul, as activity, as the world, as creator Brahma, as Lord Vishnu, the preserver. Thus God alone puts on the appearance of the whole phenomenon.
Eight Chapter
Whatever entity a man thinks of at the last moment, (when he leaves the body), that alone he attains; therefore a human being if he thinks of God at the last moment, he attains Him and he is liberated from the cycle of birth and death. Therefore a person should think of God at all times, in all circumstances, while performing his duty, according to the ordinance of the scriptures, so that he may think of Him at the last moment also. Generally the thought which has been uppermost in a person’s life, comes to mind at the moment of death.
