TRANSLATION:

As time and concept do not exist,

Upon what exists all the panorama

that is seen?

As nothing of gross form exists,

Where exists the consequential bondage

of worldly existence?

As the original nescience never exists,

Where arise all its effects?

Be immersed in the inquiry of how the

abode of all is the Supreme Brahmam*,

And That, indeed, are We*.

COMMENTARY:

Time and imagination do not exist; hence, there is no existence of names and forms.

The body, caused on account of one’s Karma, made of flesh and containing faeces, does

not exist; hence, there is no cycle of birth and death, no bondage and liberation.

Ignorance, which is the cause of suffering, does not exist; hence, there is no existence of pangs of birth and death!

Contemplate thus: ‘Everything is One; That is beneficent; That is bliss; We are That and

That We are!’.               

                   

                    YOU ARE EVERYTHING!
