The way to be absorbed and stable
in soul. तद् ब्रुयात् तत् परान् पृच्छेत् तदिच्छेत् तत्परो भवेत् । येना विद्यामयं रुपं त्यक्त्वा विद्यामयं व्रजेत् ।। ५३ ।।
In this verse, the tricks and devices of being absorbed into soul are elucidated.
As we go on making an enquiry into our beloved wife or dear son, go on asking about, go on keeping ourselves absorbed into our beloved wife or dear son when they are lost somewhere so, says Acharya, we should speak of the soul, think of it, ask about the nature of it to our realised Gurus who have experienced it, have very ardent longing of it, and should be absorbed continuously and unbrokenly in it.
. In this way, if we havr a great faith in and an ardent adoration and unbreaking and unfluctuating memory of our soul, ignorance and misconception of the whole universe and the soul itself gradually go on disappearing and the flame of the selfknowledge at the same speed go on arising.
