अव्यक्तात्तुपरः पुरुषो
व्यापकोऽलिङ्ग एव च ।
यं ज्ञात्वा मुच्यतेजन्तुर
मृतत्वं च गच्छति ॥ ८

BEYOND THE UNMANIFESTED IS THE ALL PERVADING PURUSHA DEVOID OF ALL OR ANY CHARECTERS - DISTICTIVE MARKS (LINGAVASTA )WHEN THE TINY CREATURE (JANTU) KNOWS THIS HE IS EMANSIPATED AND ATTAINS IMMORTALITY ||8
This one has same meaning or similar meaning as one before and it sounds like repetition. The Un- manifested and Lingavasta and Alinga are the words that are used to described the origin of Universe . When the Universe started from singularity there was some disturbance and that was related to the imbalance in the 3 qualities or the Gunas The manifested Universe came out of UNMAIFESTED state. This was due to the Stavic,Rajasic and Tamasic Gunas. But in the state before that there was no QUALITIES or MARKSA that can identify the un- manifested . So we are told that beyond that is the PURUSHA which has no identifiable marks and when i=one KNOWS THAT he is free of birth and death cycle and is immortal .
