  * saṃsāra - the cycle of worldly existence
This verse is a profound affirmation of the fundamental identity between the individual self and the ultimate reality, 'Brahman'. It reflects the teachings of 'Advaita Vedanta' which advocates non-dualism. The phrase "तत्त्वमसि" (Tat Tvam Asi) is one of the Mahavakyas from the Upanishads, translating to "That Thou Art". This expression urges introspection and the realization that one's true self (Atman) is the same as the ultimate, unchanging reality of the universe (Brahman).
  * kārāgṛha - prison
  * mokṣa - liberation
  * icchoḥ - of the one who desires
  * ayomāyām - iron-made illusion
  * pāda - feet
  * nibandha - binding
  * śṛṅkhalam - chains
  * vadanti - they say, declare
  * tajjñāḥ - those who are knowledgeable
  * paṭu - strong, sharp
  * vāsanā - tendencies, impressions
  * trayaṃ - threefold
  * yaḥ - whoever
  * asmāt - from this
  * vimuktaḥ - liberated
  * samupaiti - attains
  * muktim - liberation


- **Commentary:**
The descriptors used in the sloka: *nityamuktam* (ever-free), *avibhakta-mūrti* (undivided form), and *nistaraṅga-jala-rāśi-niścalam* (still as a waveless ocean), emphasize the nature of Brahman as transcendent, beyond all duality and separation. It implies that the atman is inherently free and unperturbed by the temporal changes in the material world. This meditation upon one's essential unity with Brahman leads to ultimate liberation (moksha).
  This verse speaks to the desire for liberation from the cycles of birth and death, likened here to a prison. The "chains" referred to in the sloka are the threefold tendencies or vāsanās: attachment, aversion, and ignorance. These are metaphorically described as being made of iron, indicating their strength and the difficulty in breaking free from them. The wise, or tajjñāḥ, are those with an understanding of the nature of reality, and they suggest that liberation (mokṣa) is achieved by freeing oneself from these deep-rooted tendencies. Hence, the path to true freedom involves not just external actions but an internal transformation and release from the binding impression of desires and habitual patterns. True liberation is hence internal and is attained when one's mind is free from these binding vāsanās. The sloka emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and the necessity of overcoming internal barriers to attain spiritual freedom.
