Life is Consciousness alone || Mundaka Upanishad (2021)

प्रणो ह्येष यः सर्वभूतैर्विभाति विजानन्विद्वान्भवते नातिवादी । आत्मक्रीड आत्मरतिः क्रियावानेष ब्रह्मविदां वरिष्ठः ॥

praṇo hyeṣa yaḥ sarvabhūtairvibhāti vijānanvidvānbhavate nātivādī ātmakrīḍa ātmaratiḥ kriyāvāneṣa brahmavidāṃ variṣṭhaḥ

This is the life in things that shines manifested by all these beings; a man of knowledge coming wholly to know this, draws back from creeds and too much disputings. In the Self his delight, at play in the Self, doing works; the best is he among the knowers of the Eternal.

~ Verse 3.1.4

✥ ✥ ✥

Acharya Prashant (AP): “This is the life in things that shines manifested by all these beings.”

The śloka (verse) says praṇa. Praṇa has been loosely translated as ‘life’ here.
