ghate bhinne ghatakasham
sulinam bheda-varjitam
shivena manasa shuddho
na bhedah pratibhati me
❧
When a jar is broken, the space that was inside
Merges into the space outside.
In the same way, my mind has merged in God;
To me, there appears no duality.
~~~
na ghato na ghatakasho
no jivo jiva-vigrahah
kevalam brahma samviddhi
vedya-vedaka-varjitam
❧
Truly, there’s no jar, no space within;
There’s no body and no soul encased.
Please understand; everything is Brahman.
There’s no subject, no object, no separate parts.
~~~
vedah na lokah na sura na yajnah
varnashramo naiva kulam na jatih
no dhuma-margo na cha dipti-margo
brahmaika-rupam paramartha-tattvam

There are no divine scriptures, no world, no imperative religious practices;
There are no gods, no classes or races of men,
No stages of life, no superior or inferior;
There’s nothing but Brahman, the supreme Reality.”
