VIVEKACHUDAMANI
तत्त्वमस्यादिवाक्योत्थब्रह्मात्मैकत्वबोधतः ।
ब्रह्मण्यात्मत्वदाय स्वाभ्यासापनयं कुरु ॥ २८३ ॥
283. Through the realisation of the identity of Brahman and the soul, resulting from such great dictal as 'Thou art That' and so forth, do away with thy superimposition, with a view to strengthen thy identification with Brahman.
अहंभावस्य देहेऽस्मिन्निःशेषविलयावधि ।
सावधानेन युक्तात्मा स्वाभ्यासापनयं कुरु ॥ २८४ ॥
284. Until the identification with this body is completely rooted out, do away with thy superimposition with watchfulness and a concentrated mind.
प्रतीतिर्जीवजगतोः स्वप्नवद्भाति यावता ।
तावन्निरन्तरं विद्वन्स्वाभ्यासापनयं कुरु ॥ २८५ ॥
285. So long as even a dream-like perception of the universe and souls' persists, do away with thy superimposition, O learned one, without the least break.
[1Universe and souls-i. e., plurality. ]
निद्राया लोकवार्तायाः शब्दादेरपि विस्मृतेः । चिनावसरं दत्वा चिन्तयात्मानमात्मनि ॥ २८६ ॥
