Sage Dattatreya said,
What is food for one, is poison for another (e.g., decomposed food for worms and men). What is one thing to yogis and celestials, is another to others. A long distance by one vehicle is short by another. Long intervals of space reflected in the mirror are themselves in it and yet unreal.
In this way, investigation becomes indeterminate by itself. Investigation and the object investigated are both indeterminate, and the only constant factor underlying both is consciousness. Nothing else can stand beside it.
That which shines as 'Is', is Her Majesty the Absolute Consciousness. Thus the universe is only the Self - the One and one only.

Thus ends the chapter on "The Ascertainment of Truth" in Tripura Rahasya.
