Recitation with translationSanyasa Upanishad 2.9

saṃnyāsinaṃ dvijaṃ dṛṣṭvā sthānāc calati bhāskaraḥ | eṣa me maṇḍalaṃ bhittvā paraṃ brahmādhigacchati ||9||

जब सूरज संन्यासी को देखता है, तो अपनी जगह से हिलता है। सूरज कहता है कि यह बंदा मेरे चक्कर को तोड़ता है। वो सीधा ब्रह्मा के पास पहुँचता है।

Having seen a twice-born renunciant, the Sun (Bhāskara) moves from his place: “He breaks through my orb and attains the supreme Brahman.”

Moksha (liberation) through saṃnyāsa; transcendence of the cosmic order (brahmāṇḍa) into ParabrahmanMahavakya: Indirectly supports mahāvākya import (identity with Brahman): realization implied by ‘paraṃ brahma adhigacchati’; closest in spirit to ‘ahaṃ brahmāsmi’ (Bṛhadāraṇyaka) as the attained Brahman is not other than the Self.AtharvaChandas: Anuṣṭubh (śloka)
