स्वप्ने नष्टं स्वप्नविश्वं विचित्रं
 
स्वस्माद्भिन्नं किन्नु दृष्टं प्रबोधे । २५३ ॥
 
253. (What is) erroncously supposed to exist in some-
thing, is, when the truth about it has been known, nothing
but that substratum, and not at all different from it: The
diversified dream universe (appears and) passes away in
the dream itself. Does it appear on waking as something
distinct from one's own Self?
 
जातिनीतिकुलगोत्रदूरगं
नामरूपगुणदोपवर्जितम् ।
देशकालविषयातिवतिं यद्
 
ब्रह्म तत्त्वमसि भावयात्मनि ॥ २५४ ॥
254. That which is beyond caste and creed, family and
lineage; devoid of name and form, merit and demerit;
transcending space, time, and sense-objects-that Brahman
art thou, meditate on this in thy mind.
 
यत्परं सकलवागगोचरं
गोचरं विमलवोधचक्षुषः ।
शुद्धचिद्धनमनादि वस्तु यद्
 
ब्रह्म तत्त्वमसि भावयात्मनि ॥ २५५ ॥

255. That Supreme Brahman which is beyond the range
of all speech, but accessible to the eye of pure illumination;
which is pure, the cmbodiment of Knowledge, the begin-
ningless entity-that Brahman art thou, meditate on this
in thy mind.
