When Sat-Chit-Ananda Becomes Clear

[Guest guest]

Jaya Guru Datta,

 

Here is today's saying:

 

"Get rid of Asdhyaaropa. Understand clearly the Adhishthana.

 

O man! Aropana (imposition)born out of Ajnaana (ignorance) will cause Moha

(delusion). Give it up! Give it up! Aropana causes you to perceive an object

as something although it is not that thing (it causes you to think that this

strange world itself is Paramatma).

 

If one somehow comprehends ths Adhishtana that is the basis (substratum) for

Aropana, all strange superimpositions will immediately vanish.

 

When you comprehend a rope, where will be the illusion that it is a snake? If

you realise that it is a bush, where will be delusion that it is a hiding thief?

If you are able to comprehend Sat-Chit-Ananda, where will be the illusory world?

(It means, one who had mistaken a rope to be a snake in darkness, will get rid

of that illusion once there is light. Then there will be no thief. Similarly,

when Sat-Chit-Ananda becomes clear, then the world will not be there anymore.)"

 

In Sanskrit:

 

Aadhyaaropana mapaakuru

Adhisthaanam sphuteekuru

 

Ajnaanodbhava maaropam

Jahi jahi maanava! Mohakarm

Na hi te kurute tadbuddhim

Nityamatasmin bahuchitre

 

Kenachidapyatha maargena

Spaashtam jnaatedhishthane

Chitra vichitraa aaropaa

Statkshana nashtaa bhavanti hi

Jnaate rajjou kuha sarpo

Jnaate sthaanou chorah kva

Arere! kvedam jagadakhilam

Jnaate Sri Sachidaanande
