I am always able to realise Myself

[Guest guest]

Jaya Guru Datta,

 

Here is today's saying:

 

"I am giving up illusion. I am taking a decision. I am acquiring the

astonishing, unique and uninterrupted Tureeya (fourth) state.

 

With the advent of light, I am overcoming the delusion of snake (in the rope).

I am able to comprehend the form of the rope. Similarly, with the help of

proper analysis of facts, I am able to transcend the three states. I am able to

realise the 'I' - who is witness.

 

This fourth state is not really a separate state. Also, witness-ship is not

inherent in me. To achieve the Tureeya state, I do not need to go anywhere. To

become witness, I do not need to do anything.

 

I am an aggregation of knowledge like a lump of pure gold. Just like pure

effulgence, I am self-luminous. Therefore, I am always able to realise myself -

who is of the nature of Sachchidananda, who is also referred to as Tureeya."

 

 

 

In Sanskrit:

 

Jahaami sambhramam vahaami nishchayam

Samemi santatam tureeya madbhutam

 

Prakaasha sangamaat pridaaku sambhramam

Vihaaya rajjukam yathaiva vedmyaham

Vichaara sangamaat sthiti trayam tathaa

Vihaa turyakam svamemi saakshinam 1

 

Tureeya mityado na tat sthitir mataa

Na chaapi saakshitaa svabhaavajaa mama

Tureeya taaptaye na yaami kutra vaa

Na saakshi taaptae karomi karma vaa 2

 

Suvarna khandavat prabodha chidghano

Vishuddha deeptivat svayam prabhosmi cha

Tato hi maamaham tureeya sanjnakam

Sadaiva sachidaanandam bhajaamyaham 3
