Gandhi's Teachers : Rajchandra Ravjibhai Mehta
which has form and is visible. Then who experiences the birth and death of soul (as non-living matter is without consciousness and cannot experience)?
63 जेना अनुभव वश्य ए, उत्पन्न, लय, ज्ञान। ते तेथी जूदा विना, थाय न केमे भान ।।६३।। उत्पत्ति-लयवोधौ तु यस्यानुभववर्तिनौ। स ततो भिन्न एव स्यान्नान्यथा बोधनं तयोः॥६३।।
Through whose experience the knowledge of birth and death arises, that (soul) is different (from the body). Otherwise, how the knowledge will arise?
64 जे संयोगो देखिये, ते ते अनुभवदृश्य। उपजे नहीं संयोगथी, आत्मा नित्य प्रत्यक्ष ॥६४।। दृश्यन्ते ये तु संयोगा ज्ञायन्ते ते सदात्मना। नाऽत्मासंयोगजन्योऽतः किन्त्वात्मा शाश्वतः स्फुटम्॥६४।।
Whatever unions (with non-living matter) are seen (e.g., birth of the body), pure soul knows them. Soul is not born through any union and for that reason is evidently eternal.
65
जडथी चेतन उपजे, चेतनथी जड थाय। एवो अनुभव कोईने, क्यारे कदी न थाय॥६५॥ जडादुत्पद्यते जीवो जीवादुत्पद्यते जडम्। एषाऽनुभूतिः कस्यापि कदापि क्वापि नैव रे ! ।।६५।।
Whether soul is born of non-living matter or non-living matter is born of soul, this experience has never been possible to anyone anywhere.
66 कोइ संयोगोथी नहीं, जेनी उत्पत्ति थाय। नाश न तेनो कोईमा, तेथी 'नित्य' सदाय ।।६६।।
