Translation

This notion of duality has its origin in the mind. It does not exist when the mind is dissolved. Hence concentrate your mind in the innermost Supreme Atman.

Annotation

‘Nothing exists’ – Duality does not exist when the mind is not active in deep sleep. Nescience alone cannot cause duality. In the presence of mind it causes duality in the waking and dream states. When the mind is fixed in Brahman, nescience along with duality get negated (Jagadguru).
