This verse deserves examination, for two persons are named separately in it, and moreover in one line. The first: asau naraḥ, "that Man" — He, appearing in consciousness. The second: jīvātmānaṃ duḥkha-āḍhyaṃ, "the living self, laden with sorrow."
And it is said what the first does to the second: ānandayati, "delights, gladdens." The verb is transitive: one delights the other. This line destroys every reading in which the two are one and the same. One can delight oneself only in words; and "laden with sorrow" and "the one delighting" cannot be one person at the same moment — otherwise it would follow that the sorrowing one both comforts himself and receives comfort from nowhere.
It is worth noting the word nara, "man, person." It is from the same root as Nārāyaṇa, "dwelling on the waters" or "the refuge of people"; and in Manu this name is explained thus: the waters are nāraḥ, the offspring of Nara, and the One who rests upon them is called Nārāyaṇa. Let us add that the verb ānandayati is the causative form of ānand, "to rejoice": literally "causes to rejoice." Joy, accordingly, is not born of itself in the sorrowing one; it is called forth. And this is, in essence, the same as what is said of grace: not earned, but given.
