It means: I am That, thou art That, and Yhat does not change. The thing which does not change is transcendental to the ever-changing universe. It is pure (non-relative), and it can be achieved by that form of meditation (meditation = turning the mind from the ever- changing to the non-changing) which allows the mind to go beyond the relative to the non-relative. Therefore, after having realised this field fully, one feels that even in the midst of ever-changing world....nothing is going to change My world. But then I thought that would have been obvious to you. OffWorld
