The description of the goal begins with the negation of three pronouns: “thou”, “I”, “one's own”.
These are the same three listed in 4.47 as the composition of “the seen”: jagat, tvam, aham.
And paratā is added — “otherness”. Not only “I” and “thou” vanish, but the very relation of estrangement.
Note the word kalanā — “positing, carving up”, familiar since the second chapter (2.53, 2.77). It is nowhere.
The Vaiṣṇava reading of such passages holds to one distinction, spoken of already at 4.78. What is negated is estrangement, not difference. The “thou” and “I” said coldly, as of strangers — that is what departs; the relation remains, for otherwise there would be no one to have this state.
The following verses continue the list.
