enjoyment of sensual pleasures,
they fall into a foul hell.

shall be done.

Therefore, in order to realize the
Self, renounce everything. Having
cast off all (objects), assimilate
yourself to that which remains.

was born before. She who was
once his mother will now be wife
and she who is now wife is (or will
be) verily mother. He who is now
father will be again son and he
who is now son will be again
father. Thus are the egos of this

birth and death like a bucket in the
wheel of a well and enjoying the
worlds.

stands at the beginning: that one
will know the end and will not
taste death.

Of the Five Avastas Jagra

That to Tattvas six and thirty
pertain,
The Fourth is the luminous Turiya;
Passing beyond to Turiyatita
The Two in One inseparate merge
The Jiva himself Siva becoming;
This the Order do know,
The Siva that stands in the
beginning
Becomes verily in End of
experience all.

expositions, not by great learning,
nor by reliance on intellectual
knowledge, nor through power of

and exercises. The Vedic scholars
achieve it, having become calm,
restrained, withdrawn, tolerant and
concentrating.
