Traducción
And the formless is the breath and the space within the body; it is the immortal, the moving, the beyond. The essence of this formless, immortal, moving, beyond is the person in the right eye: he is the essence of the beyond.

The formless in a man is the breath and the inner ākāśa (the space of the heart), and their essence is "the person in the right eye": the Looker in the eye, the very one Prajāpati showed to Indra and Virocana (ChU 8.7.4) and whom the mirror-mistake takes for a reflection. The scheme closes in a perfect symmetry: in the world, the essence of the dense is the sun and of the subtle the Person in the sun; in the body, the essence of the dense is the eye and of the subtle the Person in the eye.
Macrocosm and microcosm turn out to be one drawing with one Dweller at two windows: look out from the sun and he is a god, look out from the eye and he is the inner witness — but the Puruṣa is one. The Upaniṣad has drawn this out in order now — the one time it does so — to describe how He looks.
