This space is the honey of all beings, and all beings are the honey of this space. And the shining immortal person who is in space, and the shining immortal person who is in the body as the space of the heart — that is this ātman. This is the immortal, this is Brahman, this is all.

The tenth wave is ākāśa and "the space within the heart" (hṛdy ākāśaḥ): the outer expanse and the inner, the dahara-ākāśa known from the Chāndogya (8.1) and from consciousness's night lodging in Ajātaśatru's teaching (2.1.17). The expanse is the honey of beings: room for everything; beings are the honey of the expanse: the lives that fill it.
The two spaces are sweet to each other as two cavities of one breathing — and they are equal in size (ChU 8.1.3). He who has learned to enter the space of the heart carries the whole outer one in his breast — and in both he meets one Puruṣa, to whom both a world and a point are roomy.
