The verse gives an exercise, and the exercise is to hold one thought in the mind.
Note the aim: cetaś-cāñcalya-śāntaye — “for the quieting of the mind's restlessness”.
That is, the contemplation of oneness is proposed not as a truth to be assimilated, but as a remedy for unrest.
This agrees with 4.123: the firm design “all is Brahman” frees. Design against design.
The word bhāvaya — “nurture the thought”, from bhāvanā (4.15, 4.91). Not a single act of work.
And yatnena — “diligently”. The book does not pretend this is easy.
Akhaṇḍita — “uncleft”. The same word stood in 2.75 of Śuka's samādhi: “unbroken”. Wholeness is what must displace the fragmentary.
