परस्तस्मात्तु भावोऽन्योऽव्यक्तोऽव्यक्तात्सनातनः ।

annihilated. When all in this world is
annihilated, that part remains the same.

When at a higher dimension, we realize that all that we see is destroyed and created continuously, only one thing is neither created nor destroyed and that is the Ultimate Consciousness'!
