Gandhi's Teachers : Rajchandra Ravjibhai Mehta
Through (acquired) inner nature, intelligence becomes fixed (is not deluded). This is called perfect knowledge and truly one attains liberation while living in the body.
114 कोटि वर्षनुं स्वप्न पण, जाग्रत थतां समाय। तेम विभाव अनादिनो, ज्ञान थतां दूर थाय।।११४।। स्वप्नोऽपि कोटिवर्षस्य निद्रोच्छेदे समाप्यते। विभावोऽनादिजो दूरे नश्येद् ज्ञाने तथा सती।।११४।।
A dream lasting million of years ends with the snapping of sleep. Similarly fallacies of an eternity vanish with the true knowledge.
115 छूटे दहाध्यास तो, नहीं कर्ता तुं कर्म। नहीं भोक्ता तुं तेहनो, ए ज धर्मनो मर्म ।।११५।। दहाध्यासो यदि नश्यत् त्वं कर्ता न हि कर्मणाम्। न हि भाक्ता च तेषां त्वं धर्मस्यैतद् गूढं मतम् ।।११५॥
When false association with the body stops, then you are neither the doer of karmas and nor their enjoyer. This is the deep meaning of religion.
116
ए ज धर्मथी मोक्ष छे, तुं छो मोक्षस्वरूप। अनंत दर्शन ज्ञान तुं, अव्याबाध स्वरूप।।११६।। मोक्ष एव ततो धर्मान्मोक्षात्मा च त्वमेव भोः। अनन्तदर्शनं त्वं च अव्याबाधरूपस्त्वकम् ।।११६।।
In the dharma (prescribed religion as mentioned in verse 115) lies liberation. Then you are yourself the liberated soul, infinite knowledge, and immutable form.
117 शुद्ध, बुद्ध, चैतन्यघन, स्वयंज्योति सुखधाम। बीजुं कहिये केटलुं ? कर विचार तो पाम।।११७।।
