चिच्छक्तिर् अमला सैषा चेत्यामयविवर्जिता । भरिताशेषदिक्कुञ्जा भैरवाकारधारिणी
This is the pure power of consciousness, free from the affliction of objectification, pervading all directions, bearing the form of the Terrible One.
सर्वभावगता सूक्ष्मा भावाभावविवर्जिता । आब्रह्मभुवनान्तस्था सर्वशक्तिसमुद्गिका
Subtle, present in all things, free from both being and non-being, extending up to the highest world of Brahma, she is the source of all powers.
सर्वसौन्दर्यसुभगा सर्वप्राकाश्यदीपिका । सर्वसंसारमुक्तानां तन्तुर् आततरूपिणी
She is endowed with all beauty, the lamp of all illumination, the thread of all who are liberated from worldly existence, manifest in every form.
सर्वाकारविकाराढ्या सर्वाकारविवर्जिता । सर्वभूतौघतां याता सर्वदा सर्वतां गता
Endowed with all forms and transformations, yet devoid of all forms; having attained the state of the multitude of all beings, always abiding as all.
चतुर्दशविधान्य् एषा भूतानि भुवनोदरे । एतन्मयीयं कलना जागती वेदनात्मिका
These fourteen kinds of beings exist within the womb of the world; this conceptualization, composed of these, is the worldly experience, consisting of perception.
मिथ्यावभासमात्रं तु सर्वदुःखदशागतिः । नानाकारमयाभासं सर्वम् आत्मैव चित् परा
But it is only a false appearance, the course of all states of suffering; the entire manifold display is but the supreme consciousness, the Self alone.
सेयम् आत्मा मम व्यापी सेयं मदवबोधनम् । सेयम् आकलिताङ्गेहा करोति नृपतिभ्रमम्
This is the Self, pervading me; this is my awareness; this, having assumed the form of limbs and body, produces the delusion of being a king.
अस्या एव प्रसादेन मनो देहरथस्थितम् । संसारजाललीलासु याति वल्गति नृत्यति
By the grace of this alone, the mind, situated in the chariot of the body, moves, leaps, and dances in the play of the net of worldly existence.
इदं मनश् शरीरादि न किञ्चित् अपि वस्तुतः । नष्टे न किञ्चित् अप्य् अस्मिन् परिनश्यति पेलवे
This mind, body, and so on, are in reality nothing at all; when this subtle thing is lost, nothing else perishes.
जगज्जालमयं नृत्तम् इदं चित्तनटैस् ततम् । एतयैवैकया पङ्क्त्या दृश्यते दीपलेखया
This dance, woven of the net of the world, is spread by the actors of the mind; it is seen by this single line, like a streak of light from a lamp.
कष्टं मुधैव मे चिन्ता निग्रहानुग्रहस्थितौ । बभूव देहनिष्ठैव न किञ्चिद् अपि देहकः
Alas, my anxiety about restraint and favor was truly in vain; it existed only in relation to the body, but the body itself is nothing at all.
नन्व् अहो सम्प्रबुद्धो ऽस्मि गतं दुर्दर्शनं मम । दृष्टं द्रष्टव्यं अखिलं प्राप्तं प्राप्यम् इदं मया
Indeed, now I am fully awakened; that which was difficult to perceive is gone for me. All that was to be seen has been seen; all that was to be attained has been attained by me.
सर्वं किञ्चित् इदं दृश्यं दृश्यते यज् जगद्गतम् । चिन्निष्ष्यन्दांशमात्रं तन् नान्यत् किञ्चन शाश्वतम्
All this that is seen, whatever exists in the world, is nothing but a mere fragment of the radiance of consciousness; there is nothing else that is truly eternal.
क्व तौ कीदृग्विधौ वापि किंनिष्ठौ वा किमात्मकौ । निग्रहानुग्रहौ लोके हर्षामर्षक्रमौ तथा
Where are those two—what are they like, upon what do they rest, and what is their nature—those so-called restraint and favor in the world, and likewise the succession of joy and resentment?
किं सुखं किं च वा दुःखं सर्वं ब्रह्मेदम् आततम् । अहम् आसं मुधा मूढो दिष्ट्यामूढो ऽस्म्य् अहं स्थितः
What is happiness, and what is suffering? All this is pervaded by Brahman. I was foolish in vain, but by fortune I now stand free from delusion.
किम् अस्मिन्न् एवम् आलोके शोच्यते किं विमुह्यते । किं प्रेक्ष्यते किम् क्रियते स्थीयते क्व क्व गम्यते
Why, in this very illumination, should one grieve or be confused? What is there to observe, to do, to remain as, or where to go, and whither?
किञ्चित् इत्थम् इदं नाम चिदाभासं विराजते । नमो नमस् ते निस्तत्त्व दृष्टदृश्यो ऽसि सुन्दर
This, in such a way, is called a certain appearance of consciousness shining forth. Salutations to you, O beautiful one, who are the seer and the seen, devoid of substance.
अहो नु सम्प्रबुद्धो ऽस्मि सम्यग् ज्ञातम् अलं मया । नमो मह्यम् अनन्ताय सम्यग्ज्ञानोदयाय च
Ah, now I am truly awakened; I have thoroughly understood enough. Salutations to my own infinite Self and to the arising of true knowledge.
विगतरञ्जननिर्विषयस्थितिर् गतभवभ्रम ईहितवर्जितः । स्थिरसुषुप्तकलातिगतस् ततस् समसमं निवसाम्य् अहम् आत्मनि
Freed from attraction, established in dispassion, with the delusion of becoming gone, devoid of striving, having gone beyond the state of deep sleep and wakefulness, I now abide evenly in my own Self.
इति हेमजटाधीशो लेभे पदम् अनुत्तमम् । विवेकाध्यवसायेन ब्राह्मण्यम् इव गाधिजः
Thus, the lord with golden matted hair attained the supreme state, through discernment and resolve, just as Gadhi's son attained Brahminhood.
अनन्ताकारकार्यासु नासीच् चेष्टासु खेदवान् । भूयो भूयः प्रयुक्तासु दिनमालास्व् इवेश्वरः
In countless actions and undertakings, he felt no fatigue, even when repeatedly engaged, like a lord in the cycles of day and night.
ततः प्रभृति सो ऽतिष्ठत् सर्वेहाविगतज्वरम् । समासमे स्वके कार्ये जलौघो ऽग्र इवानते
From then on, he remained free from all fever of striving, steadily established in his own work, like a stream of water flowing at its crest.
हर्षामर्षविनिर्मुक्तः प्रकृतं कार्यम् आचरन् । उदारगम्भीरवपुर् जहाराम्बुनिधेश् श्रियम्
Freed from joy and anger, performing his natural duties, with a noble and profound presence, he took on the splendor of the ocean.
सुषुप्तसमधर्मिण्या चित्तवृत्त्या व्यराजत । निष्कम्पया प्रकाशिन्या दीपस् स्वशिखयेव सः
He shone with a mental state akin to deep sleep—steady and luminous—like a lamp glowing with its own flame.
न निर्घृणो दयावान् नो न द्वन्द्वी नाप्य् अमत्सरः । न सुखी नासुखी नार्थी नानर्थी स बभूव ह
He was neither cruel nor compassionate, neither caught in dualities nor jealous; neither happy nor unhappy, neither seeking nor avoiding gain.
समदर्शनया नित्यं वृत्त्या चामलधीरया । अन्तश्शीतलया रेजे परिपूर्णेन्दुबिम्बवत्
With constant equanimity and pure-mindedness, and a coolness within, he radiated like a full moon.
सर्वं चित्तत्त्वकचनं जगद् इत्य् अवलोक्य सा । प्रशान्तसुखदुःखश्रीस् तस्य पूर्णा मतिर् बभौ
Seeing the entire world as the essence of consciousness, his mind became complete, tranquil amidst pleasure and pain, and full of splendor.
उल्लसन् विलसन् घूर्णंस् तिष्ठन् गच्छञ् श्वसन् स्वपन् । अभूत् स स्वसमाधिस्थः प्रबुद्धश् चिल्लयं गतः
Whether rising, shining, spinning, standing, going, breathing, or sleeping, he remained established in his own samadhi, awakened, having attained the abode of consciousness.
स कुर्वन् विगतासङ्गं राज्यं राजीवलोचनः । अतिष्ठद् अक्षताकारो भूरिवर्षशतान्य् अथ
Engaged in action without attachment, the lotus-eyed king ruled for many hundreds of years, his form uninjured.
सन्निवेशम् इमं देहनामकं तदनु स्वयम् । स जहौ तेजसाक्रान्तो रूपं हिमकणो यथा
Then, filled with radiance, he abandoned this structure called the body by his own will, just as a drop of dew vanishes.
