Ein Mantel (kanthā), der den Geist zügelt. Durch Yoga: Schau der wesenhaften Natur, die immerwährende Seligkeit ist. Einer, der von der Almosenspeise der Wonne lebt. Wohnen — selbst auf dem großen Verbrennungsplatz — im Hain der Seligkeit. Ein Ort der Abgeschiedenheit. Ein Kloster der Seligkeit. Der Zustand von unmanī (jenseits des Geistes). Śāradās Wirken. Der Gang von unmanī. Ein geläuterter Leib. Ein Sitz ohne Stütze. Die selige Regung der Nektarwogen. Der weiße, reine Himmel. Die große Lehre. Tüchtigkeit als Feld und Gefäß in der Übung der göttlichen Kräfte, beginnend mit śama und dama (Stille und Zügelung). Verbindung des Höheren und des Niederen. Die tāraka‑Unterweisungen. Die Gottheit ist nicht‑dual, immerwährende Seligkeit.

A cloak (kanthā) that restrains the mind. By yoga, the vision of the ever-blissful essential nature. One who lives on the alms of bliss. Dwelling, even in the great cremation-ground, in the grove of bliss. A solitary place. A monastery of bliss. The state of unmanī. The activity (ceṣṭā) of Śāradā. The movement/going of unmanī. A purified body. A seat without support. The blissful activity of nectar-waves. The white/pure sky. The great doctrine. Skillfulness (paṭutā) as a field and vessel in the practice of the divine powers beginning with śama and dama. The conjunction of the higher and the lower. The tāraka instructions. The deity is non-dual ever-bliss.

Moksha (jīvanmukti) through mano-nirodha culminating in Advaita-sadānanda (non-dual bliss)Mahavakya: Implicitly supports ‘Aham Brahmāsmi’ and ‘Tat tvam asi’ by identifying the realized ‘deity’ as Advaita-sadānanda (non-dual Brahman/Ātman) rather than a separate object of worship.AtharvaChandas: Prose (gadya; aphoristic/nominal style)
