Translation

One who knows that material happiness, whether good or bad, in this life or in the next, on this planet or on the heavenly planets, is temporary and useless, and that an intelligent person should not try to enjoy or even think of such things, is the knower of the self. Such a self-realized person knows quite well that material happiness is the very cause of continued material existence and forgetfulness of one’s own constitutional position.

संसृतिं चात्मनाशं च तत्र विद्वान् स आत्मदृक्॥ २०

हिन्दी भावार्थ

विषयोंका बार-बार सेवन करते-करते मेरे एक हजार वर्ष पूरे हो गये, फिर भी क्षण-प्रति-क्षण उन भोगोंकी लालसा बढ़ती ही जा रही है॥ १८॥ इसलिये मैं अब भोगोंकी वासना—तृष्णाका परित्याग करके अपना अन्त:करण परमात्माके प्रति समर्पित कर दूँगा और शीत-उष्ण, सुख-दु:ख आदिके भावोंसे ऊपर उठकर अहंकारसे मुक्त हो हरिनोंके साथ वनमें विचरूँगा॥ १९॥ लोक-परलोक दोनोंके ही भोग असत् हैं, ऐसा समझकर न तो उनका चिन्तन करना चाहिये और न भोग ही। समझना चाहिये कि उनके चिन्तनसे ही जन्म-मृत्युरूप संसारकी प्राप्ति होती है और उनके भोगसे तो आत्मनाश ही हो जाता है। वास्तवमें इनके रहस्यको जानकर इनसे अलग रहनेवाला ही आत्मज्ञानी है’॥ २०॥
