Verse: 91

TRANSLITERATION:

'Sivôkam' ena colliyiTum vâkkiyattil
Côtittu viruttâmsam nîngkum pôtangku
âyajaga aikkiyamê ariyum arttam
avvitamê Tat tuvam asi' vâkkiyattuL
êkamatâm viruttâmsam anaittum nîkki
iyalbâna aikkiyamê arintê yattâl
âyamanô bêtamellam ilanteppôtum
acañcalamây ânmâvil amarntu nirpây.

TRANSLATION:

If, after inquiry, the inapplicable
meanings of the words are removed
From the sentence,
Sivokam = Sivam + Akam = We are Sivam,
The meaning to be understood
is the innate identity.
Likewise, in the sentence,
"Tat Tvam Asi" (That you are),
The meaning to be understood after
removal of the inapplicable meanings of words Is the innate identity.
Understanding this,
relinquish all the mental differences
And abide changelessly in the Self.

COMMENTARY:

Sivoham means Sivam+Akam = We are Sivam (Brahmam). Due to the thought-current in Chitta, we ourselves have created the division that we are different from Sivam. The great aphorism declares, 'Tat Tvam Asi' (That you are). It says, the Lord (Tat) and you, Jiva (Tvam) are not apart from Brahmam (Asi). If we negate all the differences arising in the mind, we will exist as That. Hence, abide in your natural state: 'We are That; That We are', constantly!

                  YOU ARE EVERYTHING!
