95 तेथी एम जणाय छ, मले न मोक्ष-उपाय। जीवादि जाण्या तणो, शो उपकारज थाय ।।९५।। तत एवं हि संसिद्धं मोक्षोपायो न विद्यते।। जीवादिज्ञानसंप्राप्तौ कोपकारो भवेदहा !! ।।९५।।
Thus it is established that way to liberation is not known. Then gaining knowledge of soul, etc. will be of what use?
96 पांचे उत्तरथी थयु, समाधान सर्वांग। समजुं मोक्ष-उपाय तो, उदय उदय सद्भाग्य ।।९६।। प्रश्नपश्चोत्तरे लब्धे समाधिः सकलोऽजनि। यदि तत् साधनं विद्यां शिवं श्रेयो भवेच्छिवम् ।।९६।।
Upon receiving answers to my earlier five questions, I am satisfied on all counts. Good fortune of mine will arise, if I could understand the way to liberation.
97 पांचे उत्तरनी थई, आत्मा विशे प्रतीत।। थाशे मोक्षोपायनी, सहज प्रतीत ए रीत।।९७।। पञ्चोत्तरेण संजाता प्रतीतिस्तव ह्यात्मनि। मोक्षोपायस्तथा तात! एष्यति सहजं मनः ।।९७||
(The true teacher responds.) Just as now you have faith in (the existence of) soul through the provided answers to the asked five questions, son you will similarly know the way to liberation easily.
98 कर्मभाव अज्ञान छे, मोक्षभाव निजवास। अंधकार अज्ञान सम, नाशे ज्ञानप्रकाश ।।९८।। अज्ञानं कर्मभावोऽस्ति मोक्षभावो निजस्थितिः। ज्वलिते ज्ञानदीपे तु नश्येदज्ञानतातमः ।।९८।।
Ignorance generates tendency to do karmas and through inclination for liberation one is situated in own (true) nature.
