VIVEKACŪDĀMANI
 
करोत्यहन्तां ममतामिदन्तां
 
किन्तु स्वयं तिष्ठति जागरेण ॥ ४५५ ॥

455. The man who has awakened from sleep never has
any idea of "I" or "mine" with regard to his dream-body
and the dream-objects that ministered to that body, but
lives quite awake, as his own Seif.
 
न तस्य मिथ्यार्थ समर्थ नेच्छा

न संग्रहस्तज्जगतोऽपि दृष्ट: ।
तत्रानुवृत्तियदि चेन्मृषार्थं
न निद्रया मुक्त इतीष्यते ध्रुवम्

He has no desire to substantiate the unreal objects,
nor is he seen to maintain that dream-world. If he still
clings to those unreal objects, he is emphatically declared
to be not yet free from sleep.
 
तद्वत्परे ब्रह्मणि वर्तमान:
 
सदात्मना तिष्ठति नान्यदोक्षते ।
स्मृतियथा स्वप्नविलोकितायें
 
तथा विदः प्राशनमोचनादौ ॥ ४५७ ॥
 
457. Similarly, he who is absorbed in Brahman lives
identified with that eternal Reality and beholds nothing
else. As one has a memory of the objects seen in a dream,
so the man of realization has a memory of the everyday
actions such as eating.
