समुत्पादयताशेषलतातरुतृणाङ्कुरान् । भूतलेन रसाकृष्ट्या मयार्थेनेव जृम्भितम्
By the earth, which produces all creepers, trees, grasses, and sprouts, through the drawing up of moisture, it is as if my intention alone has caused their flourishing.
अवदाततमे शुद्धबोधाकाशमये मयि । जगल्लक्षाणि तिष्ठन्ति न तिष्ठन्ति च कानिचित्
Within me, who am the pure, spotless, consciousness-space, countless worlds exist, and yet some do not exist at all.
चिति चारुचमत्कारं चमत्कुर्वन्ति यत् स्वतः । स्वचमत्कृतयो ऽन्तस्स्थास् तद् एतास् सृष्टिदृष्टयः
Consciousness, by its own nature, delights in its own wondrousness; these inner marvels are the visions of creation.
अनुभूतं कृतं दृष्टं यावत् क्वचन किञ्चन । परमार्थचमत्काराद् ऋते नेहोपलभ्यते
Whatever is experienced, done, or seen anywhere, is not found here except through the wonder of ultimate reality.
प्रत्येकं विश्वरूपात्मा सर्वकर्ता निरामयः । प्रबुद्धश् शुद्धबोधात्मा सर्वं ब्रह्मात्मकं यतः
Each one is the Self of all forms, the doer of all, free from affliction; awakened, of pure consciousness, for all is of the nature of Brahman.
सर्वस् सर्वत्र सर्वात्मा सर्वगस् सर्वसंश्रयः । एतत् प्रबुद्धविषयम् अप्रबुद्धं न वेद्म्य् अहम्
All, everywhere, the Self of all, all-pervading, the refuge of all—this is the domain of the awakened; I do not know the unawakened.
आकाशकोशविशदात्मनि चित्स्वरूपे येयं स्वता कचति सर्गपरम्परेति । सान्तस् तद् एव किल ताप इवान्तर् ऊष्मा भेदोपलम्भ इति नास्ति सद् अस्त्य् अनन्तम्
That which shines as selfhood in the pure space-like essence of consciousness, and which appears as the succession of creation, is in truth that very peace; it is like inner heat, for division is only an appearance—there is no real separation. The real exists, infinite and undivided.
अथैवंरूपसंवित्तेḫ परावृत्य प्रयत्नतः । तम् अम्बरकुटीकोशदेशम् आगतवान् अहम्
Then, turning my awareness back from such perceptions with effort, I arrived at that region, the subtle space-like abode.
यावत् तत्र न पश्यामि स्वदेहं क्वचन स्थितम् । पश्यामि केवलं सिद्धं कम् अप्य् अन्यं पुरस् स्थितम्
There, I did not see my own body present anywhere; I saw only a perfected being, someone else, standing before me.
उपविष्टं समाधाननिष्ठम् इष्टपदं गतम् । सोम्योदयम् इवादित्यं दग्धेन्धनम् इवानलम्
He was seated, established in deep absorption, having attained the desired state—like the moon risen, like a fire whose fuel is consumed.
बद्धपद्मासनं शान्तं समाधाननिरिङ्गनम् । गुल्फद्वितयमध्यस्थवृषणं विषयातिगम्
He sat in the firm lotus posture, tranquil, intent solely on absorption, his genitals resting between his ankles, beyond all sense-objects.
मृष्टसोम्यसमाभोगस्कन्धबन्धुरकन्धरम् । सुस्थिरोदरविश्रान्तस्थानकस्थितिसुन्दरम्
His shoulders and neck were graceful, his body shining with gentle beauty, his posture steady and elegant, resting with ease in his abdomen.
नाभीनिकटगोत्तानपाणिद्वितयदीप्तिभिः । हृदयाम्भोजतेजोभिर् बहिस्स्थैर् इव भासितम्
Illuminated by the radiance from his hands stretched beside his navel and from the light of the lotus of his heart, he seemed to shine outwardly.
श्लिष्टपक्ष्मेक्षणं क्षीणसर्वेच्छं स्वच्छतां गतम् । सरो निमीलिताम्भोजम् इव सुप्तं दिनात्यये
His eyes, with lids gently closed, were like folded wings; all desires had faded, and he was clear within—like a lotus closing at dusk, as if asleep at the end of the day.
अविक्षुभितम् आशान्तम् अन्तẖकरणकोटरम् । दधानं धीरया वृत्त्या शान्तोत्पातम् इवाम्बरम्
Maintaining an undisturbed, tranquil inner chamber of the mind, with a steady disposition, like the sky free from agitations.
अपश्यता निजं देहं तं मुनिं पश्यता पुरः । इदं मया तदा तत्र चिन्तितं चारुचेतसा
While that sage, not perceiving his own body, appeared before me, I, with a clear mind, thought this at that moment:
अयं कश्चिन् महासिद्धस् सम्प्राप्तो ऽस्मिन् दिगम्बरे । चिरायाहम् इवैकान्तविश्रमार्थी महाम्बरम्
Some great accomplished one has arrived in this sky-clad expanse; for a long time, like me, he seeks solitary rest in the vast sky.
समाधियोग्यम् एकान्तं लभेयेतीह चिन्तया । कुटी दृष्टेयम् एतेन सत्यसङ्कल्पशालिना
He is contemplating here, 'May I find a secluded place suitable for meditation'; this hut has been seen by him, endowed with firm resolve.
मदागमनम् एतेन ततो ऽचिन्तयताचलम् । तं मद्देहं शवीभूतम् अपास्येह कृता स्थितिः
Because of his unwavering thought about my arrival, he decided, 'I will abandon this body, now lifeless, and leave this place.'
तद् इहास्ताम् अयं यामि स्वं लोकम् इति निश्चयी । यावद् गन्तुं प्रवृत्तो ऽस्मि तावत् सङ्कल्पनक्षयात्
He resolved, 'Let this remain here; I will go to my own realm.' As I was about to depart, due to the cessation of intention—
सा निवृत्ता कुटी तत्र सम्पन्नं व्योम केवलम् । स सिद्धो ऽथ निराधारḫ पतितो ऽधस् समाधिमान्
That hut there vanished; only pure space remained. Then that accomplished one, established in samadhi, fell downward, unsupported.
स्वप्नसङ्कल्पसंशान्तौ स्वप्नसङ्कल्पपत्तनम् । यथा साशु कुटी नष्टा मत्सङ्कल्पोपशान्तितः
When the dream-intention ceases, the city of dream-intention disappears; just so, that hut was instantly lost when my intention subsided.
स पपात ततो ध्यानी जलोत्पीड इवाम्बुदात् । खाद् इवानिलनुन्नो ऽब्द इन्दुर् दिव इव क्षये
Then that meditator fell, like a drop of water from a cloud, like the moon from the sky at the end of its course, or like a cloud driven away by the wind.
वैमानिक इवापुण्यश् छिन्नमूल इव द्रुमः । खात् त्यक्त इव पाषाणस् स पपात ततो ऽवनौ
He fell to the ground like a celestial being deprived of merit, like a tree whose roots are cut, or like a stone cast out from a pit.
अहं यावद् इयं तावत् कुटिकास्त्व् इति कल्पने । क्षीणे कुटीक्षये जाते स सिद्धḫ पतितẖ क्षणात्
As long as the thought remained, 'Let this hut exist,' when the hut was destroyed, that accomplished one instantly fell.
पतता तेन सिद्धेन ततस् सौजन्यकौतुकात् । सार्धम् एवाहम् अगमं नभसो वसुधातलम्
As that accomplished one was falling, out of curiosity and goodwill, I too descended from the sky to the earth together with him.
सो ऽपतत् पवनस्कन्धवलनावर्तवृत्तिभिः । सप्तद्वीपसमुद्रान्तगीर्वाणरमणावनौ
He fell, carried by the currents and eddies of the wind, onto the earth beloved by the celestial beings, bounded by the seven continents and oceans.
प्राणापानोर्ध्वगामित्वात् खाद् यथास्थितम् एव सः । स्पष्ट एवोर्ध्वमूर्धोर्व्यां बद्धपद्मासनो ऽपतत्
Because his life-breaths were moving upward, he landed just as he was, clearly upright, seated in the lotus posture, with his head upward on the ground.
न प्रबुद्धो बभूवासाव् इव नूनम् अचेतनः । पाषाणदेह इव वा वातूलात्मेव वा लघुः
He did not become conscious, as if truly insensible, like a body of stone or like one whose self is moved by the wind, light in nature.
मया तदवबोधार्थम् अथ यत्नवता तदा । कृत्वा जलदतां व्योम्नो वृष्टं गर्जितम् ऊर्जितम्
Then, in order to understand that, I made a great effort and, taking on the form of a cloud in the sky, I produced a powerful rain and thunder.
