In the three abodes there is what is enjoyed, the enjoyer, and the enjoying itself; but the witness distinct from them, pure consciousness — that am I, ever the auspicious.

The verse examines the three states once more and finds in them a triad: bhogya — the enjoyed, bhoktṛ — the enjoyer, bhoga — the enjoying itself.
The object, the one who uses it, and the use.
In every experience these three are present: the food, the eater and the eating. In dream likewise: the image, the seer and the seeing.
Then the fourth is named: tebhyo vilakṣaṇaḥ sākṣī — “the witness distinct from them”.
Vilakṣaṇa means “bearing other marks” — of another kind. Not a fourth member of the same triad, but something different in nature.
The witness enjoys nothing and is enjoyed by none: he sees.
And the last words: cinmātro 'haṃ sadā śivaḥ — “I am pure consciousness, ever the auspicious”.
Cin-mātra — “consciousness only”, without admixture. Sadā śivaḥ — “ever auspicious”; and in these two words set together one also hears the name Sadāśiva.
Note how the book is built. The seventh verse contemplated Śiva with Umā; the eighth said He is also Brahmā and Viṣṇu; here the contemplative speaks of himself in the same words.
This is the limit to which such reasoning leads; and the Vaiṣṇava Vedānta, accepting it, holds beside it the book's first verse — that one goes to the Puruṣa who is higher than the high.
