TRANSLITERATION:

TRANSLATION:

In the five-fold division

As Existence, Awareness, Bliss,

Name and form,

The major first three divisions are

of the nature of the Absolute,

And the minor two latter divisions are

of the nature of the world.

Casting aside these two divisions,

which are mere words,

Be of the certitude that We are the Absolute,

Which remains as

Existence-Consciousness-Bliss.

COMMENTARY:

Sat-Chit-Ananda is 'That' alone which exists in all the objects of names and forms; 'That'

alone moves and causes happiness (by its movement) through all the names and forms.

While the substratum 'That' remains the same, only names and forms keep changing and disappearing. Recognize the truth that in all three states (Sat-Chit-Ananda), Brahmam exists as Brahmam only. So, Sat-Chit-Ananda alone is the truth. Names and forms are illusory and are useful only for cognition and identification of objects in the phenomenal world. Hence, forget the names and forms and realize that we are Sat-Chit-Ananda.

                    YOU ARE EVERYTHING!
