TRANSLATION:
How shall We now recompense you?
All is your non-dual, natural Self.
We are submerged in the ocean of
'We-are-Brahmam'
And dissolved therein,
Where you are We and We
are you in absolute identity.
Is there anything apart,
In this state of the one Self
Abiding as Itself all alone?
COMMENTARY:
O Our Ocean of bliss! Form of bliss of the Self! Ocean of bliss of Brahmam!
Though, to the naked eyes we appear as two separate persons in the worldly sense, in reality, we are One. In other words, we are two fruits of the same kind but the taste is same within. External appearance
of the fruit disappears but the taste endures indefinitely.
Is there any recompense for this great favour you have bestowed on Us?
Do We exist separately to repay?
Do you exist distinctly to accept the reward?
We dwell in a state beyond differences.
Lord! There is no duality, here, there, or anywhere, today, yesterday or in future at any point of time.
Lord! Our individuality dissolved and merged in the ocean of limitless Bliss like the salt doll dissolving in the ocean.
YOU ARE EVERYTHING!
