Containing 4 sacred Sanskrit shlokas with multi-author commentaries and translations.
प्रकृत्या शून्यचित्तो यः
प्रमादाद् भावभावनः ।
निद्रितो बोधित इव क्षीण-
संस्मरणो हि सः ॥
"Janaka said: He who by nature is empty-minded, and who thinks of things only unintentionally, is freed from deliberate remembering like one awakened from a dream."
क्व धनानि क्व मित्राणि
क्व मे विषयदस्यवः ।
क्व शास्त्रं क्व च विज्ञानं
यदा मे गलिता स्पृहा ॥
"When my desire has been eliminated, I have no wealth, friends, robbers, senses, scriptures or knowledge."
विज्ञाते साक्षिपुरुषे
परमात्मनि चेश्वरे ।
नैराश्ये बंधमोक्षे च
न चिंता मुक्तये मम ॥
"Realising my supreme self-nature in the Person of the Witness, the Lord, and the state of desirelessness in bondage or liberation, I feel no inclination for liberation."
अंतर्विकल्पशून्यस्य
बहिः स्वच्छन्दचारिणः ।
भ्रान्तस्येव दशास्तास्तास्-
तादृशा एव जानते ॥
"The various states of one who is free of uncertainty within, and who outwardly wanders about as he pleases like an idiot, can only be known by someone in the same condition."
