The Self Realization
right perception (samyag darshana), are stated here in brief. To any soul, whose emancipation (salvation) is nearby, these padas (spiritual steps) are likely to be proven on slightest thought, are likely to be felt as supreme reality, are likely to create in his soul their discrimination with all-sided details. These six padas (spiritual steps) are absolutely beyond doubt so this is propounded by the supreme personage. The discrimination of these six padas (spiritual steps) is laid down in order that the soul might understand (realise) one's own self. The enlightened ones have preached these six padas (spiritual steps) in order to get dispelled the soul's egoism-possessionism, generated by beginningless dream-state (of ignorance). If the soul just conditions its mode that one's own self-form is just devoid of the dream-state (of ignorance), then getting awakened only on slightest effort it would attain right preception (or belief), having attained right perception, it would attain emancipation in the form of one's own inborn self. To him there would not arise any touch of joy or sorrow with regard to any vanishing impure, alien mode other than one's own self. On that reflection purity perfection, imperishability, absolute joyfulness come into incessant experience within its own self. Assumption of oneness with all anti-inbom perverse modes is caused to one's self merely by super-imposition, from these there is absolute separateness of one's own-such distinct, manifest, absolutely manifest non-dependent realisation (or spiritual experience) occurs to him. On unison with perishable or extraneous substances agreeableness or disagreeableness do not occur to him. His objective being fulfilled he becomes fully satiated, having known and felt (experienced) one's own spiritual self-form, which is devoid of birth, agedness, death, disease and such other troubles (or obstructions), and which is abode of perfect glorification. All those persons who have achieved realisation of the soul through the medium of the supreme personage's word, authoritative as the said six padas (spiritual steps), have attained one's own self-fom, have become devoid of all associations like internal anxieties, physical ailments and extraneous botherations, are becoming like that and will become just the same in future.
