The verse is spoken in the first person, and in it is heard the voice of one who has arrived.
Note the question: kim anyad abhivāñchāmi — “what else should I desire?”
This is neither renunciation nor prohibition. It is bafflement: there is nothing to desire, for there is no other.
All the book's chapters taught the letting go of desires; here it turns out that desire falls away of itself when the “other” disappears.
Recall 4.115: ignorance is icchā-mātra, “nothing but wanting”. Wanting is possible only where there is an other.
Sat-cin-mayam — “woven of being and consciousness”. Two of the three; bliss is not named.
Nor is it needed: the third is the very state out of which the verse is spoken.
