The Budhyamana certainly becomes one with myness for its characteristic feature—so says the Veda. By becoming enlightened due to mutual endeavour it becomes Avyakta that never swerves—They say thus. The perceptible and the imperceptible, O king of great lustre, follow its nature. The Avyakta, O dear one, com¬ prehends that Brahman which is non-dual.

English
Only by duly listening to the description of the Tat- tvas docs the soul, O king, become conversant with the prin¬ ciples. Learned scholars speak about twenty-five principles. Never docs a person conversant with the Tattvas get immersed in the ocean of worldly existence, O dear one. The Tattvas approach these persons quickly. Now understand their

They understand that the twenty-sixth principle is evolved out of Karman, after attaining the Atman that is free from attachment. When this is enlightened the omnipresent soul abandons the Avyakta. O great king, the truth and the truthful reality have been recounted so far. By grasping with your intellect the eternal Brahman, the first pure one, you have become Amat- sara, devoid of jealousy.

O king, this great truth should not be imparted to a person not abiding by the Vedas. It imparts enlightenment in regard to a person who is desirous of acting according to it. It admonishes one who bows down for enlightenment.

This truth should not be imparted to a liar nor to a rogue, nor to an impotent person nor to a person of crooked intellect. It should not be imparted to a person who harasses scholars devoted to knowledge. It should be imparted for the enlightenment of the disciples. This secret should be imparted to a person who has discrimination, who is fond of injunctions, who is devoid of quarrelsome dispute, who has learned much, who has humble dress and demeanour and who has no selfish motive.
अध्याय १३९

They say that knowledge of this great Brahman should not be imparted to a person who is devoid of these qualities. The narration of virtue in regard to such person is not conducive to welfare, because it is like charity accorded to a person who does not deserve it.

This should not be given to a person who has no sacred rites even if the entire earth full of jewels were given away. O leader of men, this great thing should be imparted to a per¬ son who has conquered his sense organs, who observes pure rites and who knows reality. O Karala, let there be no fear at all in you. This great Brahman has been heard by you today. It has been duly re¬ counted. It is extremely sacred. It is fully free from grief. It has neither beginning nor middle nor end.

I have been asked by you, O leader of men. So this has been recounted to you exclusively # as it had been obtained from Brahma. It is the great knowledge, the utmost resort of those who are conversant with salvation.

This great Brahman, the twenty-fifth principle, from which one does not return has now been recounted in the same manner as it had been recounted, O excellent sages, by Vasis- tha formerly. This eternal doctrine has been recounted to me and it has been obtained by me from Narada. After hearing about this great doctrine, O excellent sages, you will not feel sorry.

Due to the absence of perfect knowledge a person of confounded soul undergoes hardships again and again and attains thousands of births ending with death. Or he may go to the heavenly world or to the realm of low creatures or to the human world. Or perhaps he is released from that ocean of ignorance.

Hence due to the destruction of the unfathomable Avyakta, the eternal one, all of you, O brahmins, have become free from Rajas and Tamas. Thus, O excellent sages, the great Liberation, the es¬ sence of essences, has been recounted by me. On realising it one does not return.

भावार्थ व सुबोध प्रबोधन (Accessible Pedagogical Exposition)
आधुनिक जिज्ञासुओं के लिए सरल भाषा में भावार्थ। यह मूल मंत्र नहीं, बल्कि पाठ को सुगम बनाने हेतु संपादकीय व्याख्या है।
