तस्य हैतस्य पुरुषस्य रूपं यथा माहारजनं वासो, यथा पाण्ड्वाविकं, यथेन्द्रगोपो, यथाग्न्यर्चिः यथा पुण्डरीकं, यथा सकृद्विद्युत्तँ॥ सकृद्विद्युत्तेव ह वाअस्य श्रीर्भवति, यएवं वेद
The form of that person is like a royal garment, like a white woolen cloth, like a firefly, like a flame of fire, like a lotus, like a flash of lightning. Just as a flash of lightning, so is his radiance; whoever knows thus.
अथात आदेशः नेति नेति, नह्य् एतस्मादिति नेत्यन्यत्परमस्ति॥ अथ नामधेयँ सत्यस्य सत्यमितिः प्राणावैसत्यं, तेषामेषसत्यम्॥ 4
Now, here is the instruction: 'Not this, not this.' For there is nothing higher than this 'not this.' Now, its name: 'Truth of truth.' The breath is truth; of these, this is the truth.
मैत्रेयीति होवाच याज्ञवल्क्य, उद्यास्यन्वाअरेऽहमस्मात्स्थानादस्मि॥ हन्त तेऽनया कात्यायन्यान्तं करवाणीति
Maitreyi, said Yajnavalkya, I am about to depart from this place. Come, let me make the final arrangement for you and Katyayani.
साहोवाच मैत्रेयीः यन्म इयं, भगोः, सर्वा पृथिवीवित्तेन पूर्णास्यात् कथं तेनामृता स्यामिति॥ नेति होवाच याज्ञवल्क्यो; यथैवोपकरणवतां जीवितं, तथैवते जीवितँ स्याद्; अमृतत्वस्य तुनाशास्ति वित्तेनेति
Maitreyi said: If, O revered one, the whole earth were filled with wealth, how could I become immortal by that? Yajnavalkya replied: As is the life of those who possess means, so would be your life; but there is no hope of immortality through wealth.
साहोवाच मैत्रेयीः येनाहं नामृता स्यां, किमहं तेन कुर्यां॥ यदेवभगवान्वेद, तदेवमे ब्रूहीति
Maitreyi said: That by which I would not become immortal—what would I do with that? Whatever the revered one knows, that alone please tell me.
सहोवाच याज्ञवल्क्यः प्रियावतारे नः सतीप्रियं भाषस॥ एहि आस्व व्याख्यास्यामि ते॥ व्याचक्षाणस्य तुमे निदिध्यासस्वेति॥ ब्रवितु भगवानिति . ॥.
Yajnavalkya said: You have spoken dear words, as one who is dear. Come, sit down; I will explain to you. While I explain, you should reflect. Speak, O revered one.
