परावरैकत्वविवेकवह्निः । दहत्यविद्यागहनं ह्यशेषम् । किं स्यात्पुनः संसरणस्य बीजं । अद्वैतभावं समुपेयुषोऽस्य ॥
parāvaraikatvavivekavahniḥ | dahatyavidyāgahanaṃ hyaśeṣam | kiṃ syātpunaḥ saṃsaraṇasya bījaṃ | advaitabhāvaṃ samupeyuṣo'sya ||
The fire of discernment of the oneness of the highest and the individual burns up the whole forest of ignorance. For one who has reached the state of non-duality, what seed of further wandering could remain?
परम और जीव की एकता के विवेक की अग्नि अविद्या के पूरे घने वन को जला देती है। जो अद्वैत भाव को पा चुका, उसके लिए फिर संसार का बीज क्या बचेगा?
Meaning today and contextआज के लिए अर्थ और संदर्भ
Real understanding is like fire: it does not trim confusion branch by branch but burns at the root. When the sense of being cut off goes, much of what fed our anxiety goes with it.
सच्ची समझ आग जैसी है: वह भ्रम को डाल-डाल नहीं छाँटती, जड़ से जलाती है। जब अलग-थलग होने का भाव जाता है, तो चिंता को पोषण देने वाला बहुत कुछ भी साथ चला जाता है।
The guru continues teaching the disciple in the Vivekachudamani (attributed to Shankaracharya): he compares the knowledge of the oneness of the highest and the individual to a fire that burns the whole forest of ignorance.
