Commentary
They attain to the full knowledge of the Self or perfect knowledge of Brahman. They attain to the Bhuma or the Highest or the Unconditioned. All their doubts are totally destroyed. They fully realise now; All is Vaasudeva. All indeed is Brahman. There is no such thing as diversity. They are not rorn here and have thus conquered old age and death. They are liberated here and now.
