=== Commentary (टीका) ===
The sloka highlights the transformative role of ''jñāna'' (knowledge) in dispelling ''ajñāna'' (ignorance), which obscures the truth of ''ātman'' (the Self). It illustrates how the light of wisdom eradicates doubt and misconception, revealing the ultimate reality, ''param brahman''. Just as the sun dissipates darkness, clear knowledge illuminates the true nature of the Self, allowing individuals to perceive the ultimate truth or ''param''.

This sloka underlines the importance of knowledge as a liberating force. ''Jñāna'' isn't merely academic but a profound realization that one's true self is beyond the transient physical realm. The commentary elaborates on how the discernment through knowledge eradicates ignorance, leading to self-awareness and realization of the eternal, unchanging divine essence ''param brahman''.

In the Hindi commentary, Swami Ramsukhdas endows importance to the concept of ''viveka'' (discernment) in differentiating between the temporal and the eternal. The practice of discerning self from non-self leads to the light of knowledge illuminating the ''param'', similar to how sunrise dispels darkness.
