THE TRUE KNOWER
137
पश्यन् शृण्वन् स्पृशन् जिघ्रन्नश्नन् गृह्णन् वदन् व्रजन् ।
ईहितानी हितैर्मुक्तो मुक्त एव महाशयः ॥१२॥
पश्यन् Seeing शृखन् hearing स्पृशन् touching जिधन्
smelling अनन् eating गृह्णन् taking वदन् speaking व्रजन्
walking ईहितानोहितैः from efforts and non-efforts मुक्त:
freeman of great soul чa: free чa indeed.
12. Seeing, hearing, touching, smell-
ing, eating, taking, speaking and walking,
the great-souled one, free from all efforts
and non-efforts, is verily emancipated.
[True knowledge does not necessarily consist in
the cessation of action but in the absence of attach-
ment. The knower of the Self, therefore, even if he
acts, does not in reality act. He is ever free, though
his behaviour may seem the same as that of others.
He is above action and inaction. Cf. Gita v. 8-10.]

न ददाति न गृह्णाति मुक्तः सर्वत्र नीरसः ॥ १३॥
: The liberated one 7 not slanders not
स्तौति praises न not हृप्यति rejoices न not कुप्यति is angry
न not ददाति gives न not गृह्णाति takes च and ( स: he )
सर्वत्र in all objects नीरस: free from attachment.
13. The liberated one neither slanders
nor praises, neither rejoices nor is angry,
