विमुच्यते वा भवति स्थितेस्मिन्दस्रेन्दुवह्न्यर्कमरुन्महीभिः । तत्वैः स्वरूपैः समरूपधारिभिरात्मस्वरूपे वितत स्वभावः
vimucyate vā bhavati sthitesmindasrenduvahnyarkamarunmahībhiḥ | tatvaiḥ svarūpaiḥ samarūpadhāribhirātmasvarūpe vitata svabhāvaḥ
ในภาวะนี้ บุคคลย่อมหลุดพ้นจากพันธนาการหรือดำรงอยู่ในความเป็นจริงแท้ เพราะสภาวะของเขาแผ่ซ่านอยู่ในรูปแห่งอาตมันเอง โดยตัตตวะทั้งหลายดำรงในรูปของตน และรับรูปที่สอดคล้องกัน ปรากฏเป็นอัศวิน พระจันทร์ ไฟ พระอาทิตย์ ลม และแผ่นดิน
Unspecified (context not provided for this single verse)
Concept: Liberation is the diffusion of limited identity into ātma-svarūpa, harmonizing with the cosmic tattvas and their presiding deities.
Application: Contemplate the sacredness of natural forces (sun, wind, fire, earth) as expressions of divine order; cultivate steadiness and non-separateness without losing devotion.

FAQs
It links liberation or true becoming with realizing the Self (ātman), describing how one’s nature is understood as pervading and expressed through fundamental principles (tattvas) that appear in cosmic forms like the Sun, Moon, Fire, Wind, and Earth.
They function as emblematic cosmic manifestations of underlying principles (tattvas). The verse suggests that these principles can be contemplated in their corresponding forms as part of understanding the Self’s pervading nature.
This verse is primarily jñāna-oriented (knowledge/metaphysics): it speaks in terms of tattvas, forms, and the Self’s nature, rather than devotion, ritual, or personal deity worship.
