Forty Verses, V. 27

[Guest guest]

The 'I' does not rise in the real state,

Search for the source of 'I' dissolves it,

How else can one attain the supreme state

of one's own Self?

 

~~~~~~~~~~~

A.R. Natarajan

The non-emergence of the 'I' is the state

of being THAT. Without seeking and

attaining the place whence the 'I' emerges,

how is one to achieve self-extinciton -

the non-emergence of the 'I'?

Without that achievement, how is one

to abide as THAT - one's true state?
