Jñānasāra
Meaning : How can scriptural injunctions, oral instructions and mental thinking, without the pure experience, enable one to realize the reality which is absolute, that is to say, without duality ; (6) (206 ]
Notes : tre here means approach. It is threefold, namely,-the approach through the written word, the spoken word and mental cognition. All these three fail. Only that approach succeeds which is based on pure experience, not tinged or coloured by a meaning love and hatred. ( 6 ) [206]

Meaning : By becoming dispossessed of delusion, deep sleep is not possible. (That is to say deep sleep is possible only when He (infatuation) is present. Also even if whole operation of imagination is suspended state of Dreaming' and 'state of awakening cannot be ensured. Therefore, only experience is the fourth expedient. (because He and chat are not present). (7) [207]
Notes : During the sleeping state, HE ( Infatuation) is present. During the dreaming state galt (Imagination) is present. So also in the waking state. All these three states are marred by the presence of factors which come in the way of the comprehension of Brahma,
