CHAPTER XX
LIBERATION-IN-LIFE
जनक उवाच ।
क भूतानि क देहो वा केन्द्रियाणि क वा मनः ।
क शून्यं क च नेराश्यं मत्स्वरूपे निरञ्जने ॥१॥
जनक: Janaka उवाच said :
निरञ्जने Taintless मत्स्वरूपे in myself भूतानि elements
क्व where देहः body के where वा or इन्द्रियाणि organs क
where मन: mind क्व where वा or शून्यं void क्व where
despair where and ?
Janaka said:
1. Where are the elements, the body,
the organs, the mind, the void, or despair
in my taintless² Being?
[The disciple is now describing in this chapter
the state of a free soul which follows, even while in life,
from the repose in Self.
1 Elements-the five primary elements underlying
the cosmic evolution are Akâsa (ether), Vâyu (air),
Agni (fire), Ap (water) and Prithivi (earth).
2 Taintless etc.-the Absolute which is free from
all determinants.]
