Absorbed in the Self

Those who, without wavering, recognize the One Witness of blazing lustre - turiyatita, which is perfected in the meaning of those three most excellent words: 'that thou art' - will unravel the knot of 'differences' and overcoming every obstacle, will be themselves absorbed in the SELF.

This is the delight of knowledge spoken of by the Vedas. Those who worship the feet of Narayana, who has described it, are without blemish; those who, through the teacher of this pupil, approach the stage in which doubt it finished and steadily go forward to Perfection, will obtain spotless Emancipation.

The author has, through the two parts of this work, kindled the sublime light of the spirit, so that the darkness of eternal maya may perish and, clearing all doubts rising from mental knowledge, which is affected by differences, has subjected the disciple to himself.

Praise, praise to the author of my salvation! He placed on his head the foot of Narayana, the Infinite Lord, who had made him his slave, and who, by means of the process of negation had destroyed what through imposition had arisen as a mere fictitious appearance, and put me in such a condition that I, with eyes of grace, can remain for ever the Spectator.

Just as the refreshing, cool water from the holy feet of one's wise Master sprinkled on one's head confers all the merits obtained from all the holy places of pilgrimage, so also the learners of this unique work acquire the merits of all the holy books and live as safes in the world.
