The calm contemplative who has merged the five elements mentally in the order opposite to that of creation realizes the Self which is what is left. The noble ascetic whose inner darkness (ignorance) has been removed by the rays of the sun in the form of the compassion of the great Guru remains in the ocean of unlimited bliss.ġ1. The great ascetic whose mind is cooled by the waves of the Guru's compassion revels alone and at will in incomparable bliss.ġ0. The contemplative person whose mind is immersed in his own nature which is existence-consciousness-bliss by the grace of his Guru, is enlightened and revels, free from the notion of “I-ness's, his mind brimming with happiness.ĩ. Giving up the state of ignorance and attaining one's own nature which is existence-consciousness-bliss by the compassionate glance of the great Guru, and thus attaining a high state, the enlightened person enjoys bliss.Ĩ. Only some exceptional individuals who have acquired the necessary qualifications such as total detachment, etc., can attain to self-knowledge.ħ.
It is only when he attains self-knowledge that he is awakened from the sleep of Maya and realizes his identity with Brahman which is supreme bliss. He sees the world which is not real and so the waking state is also like dream. In the waking state also every one is under the influence of Maya. An exceptional individual is awakened from this sleep by the instruction of his Guru and shines in the ocean of bliss. Sleeping because of Maya, the individual sees thousands of dreams. By good fortune he is freed from bondage by the knowledge of the self as a result of contemplation and emerges victorious.Ħ. Bound by his own ignorance alone, performing various actions, the individual remains deluded. The supreme Self shines as incomparable, eternal, actionless, impartite, beyond the control of Maya, free from the three gunas (sattva, rajas and tamas), formless, beyond all wrong conceptions, pure, and consciousness itself.ĥ. I in whom the divine glory has been awakened by the instruction of my Guru Paramasivendra lovingly present these few passages for the purpose of abiding in my own self.Ĥ. Paramasivendra was the Guru of Sadasiva Brahmendra.ģ. I salute the holy sandals of the noble Paramasivendra which are the effulgent boat that rescues the people who have fallen into this limitless ocean of transmigratory existence, and which are adept at refuting the wrong views of others. I bow down to the indescribable primordial Guru (Dakshinamurti) who resides by the side of a fig tree, whose lotus hand displays brilliantly the jnana-mudra's (in which the tips of the thumb and the index finger of the right hand are joined), who is the sprout of the bliss that is liberation.Ģ.
