Atma Sakshatkara
161
All this universe, from Siva down to the earth, Are all established in me. 11. Whatever is seen in this world, Whatever is heard in this world, Whatever shines, conceptualised as inside and outside, All these are pervaded by me, the all-pervading One. Realise this. 12. Though considering himself the Self, He desires to attain that Siva, the Supreme Self, as one apart. Whoever contemplates on Siva thus in delusion, Will not attain Sivahood by such contemplation — know this. 13. ‘Siva is other than I; I am other than Siva’ — Uproot this attitude of differentiation. ‘I indeed am that Siva’ — This conviction that is non-dual, ever practise. 14. Full of this non-dual conviction, He who, everywhere, abides ever in the Self, Shall see, in all things, in all bodies, Only that Siva-self — of this, there is no doubt. 15. Whoever has this conviction always, of the one Self, Shall rid himself of delusion, and dual perception. That yogi will attain to omniscience — So it is said in the Vedas. This you should know. 16. He who is praised in all scriptures As the unborn, the Ishwara, That formless and attributeless Self, He indeed am I — there is no doubt about this.
