{LAYA/THE MELTED STATE OF ONENESS}

आकाशवदनन्तोऽहं घटवत्प्राकृतं जगत् ।

इति ज्ञ्नानं तथैतस्य न त्यागो न ग्रहो लयः ॥६-१॥

I am endless like the space.

The world is just an inert appearance seen by senses.

This is the true Knowledge.

  Therefore, there is no renouncing, or accepting any other thing.

This is the state of oneness.

महोदधिरिवाहं स प्रपञ्चो वीचिसन्निभः ।

इति ज्ञ्नानं तथैतस्य न त्यागो न ग्रहो लयः ॥६-२॥

I am the huge ocean.

This world made of the five elements is like the waves.

This is the true Knowledge.

  Therefore, there is no renouncing, or accepting any other thing.

This is the state of oneness.

अहं स शुक्तिसङ्काशो रूप्यवद्विश्वकल्पना ।

इति ज्ञ्नानं तथैतस्य न त्यागो न ग्रहो लयः ॥६-३॥

I am like the conch-shell

where the imagination of the world shines forth like the silver.

This is the true Knowledge.

  Therefore, there is no renouncing, or accepting any other thing.

This is the state of oneness.

अहं सर्वभूतेषु सर्वभूतान्यथो मयि ॥

इति ज्ञ्नानं तथैतस्य न त्यागो न ग्रहो लयः ॥६-४॥

I am in all as their essence; and everything is in me as my essence.

This is the true Knowledge.

  Therefore, there is no renouncing, or accepting any other thing.

This is the state of oneness.
