What remains to be done by him, who,

having extinguished the ego, remains

immersed in the bliss of the Self?

He is aware of nothing but the Self.

Who can understand his state?

 

Despite the Vedas proclaiming 'Thou art

THAT', it is sheer weak-mindedness not

to investigate into the nature of oneself

and abide as the Self, but instead to go

on thinking 'THAT I am, not this.'

Who can understand the state of the one

who has dissolved the ego and is

abiding, always, in the Self?

For him the Self alone is,

What remains for him to do?

 

The scriptures assert 'That you are'

without enquiring and reaching

the Self which always shines, and abiding

as That to discuss again, endlessly, is only

due to the weakness of the mind.
