Atma-Siddhi
163
(After receiving the teachings, the disciple Says) O true teacher, you are the ocean of kindness. You have done a great good to this poor pupil and I am under your obligation. Oh, Oh (a sign of great satisfaction and pleasure).
125
शुं प्रभुचरण कने धरूं ? आत्माथी सौ हीन। ते तो प्रभुए आपियो, वर्तुं चरणाधीन।।१२५।। प्रभोः पादे धरेयं किमात्मतो हीनकं समम्। अर्पितः प्रभुणा सोऽस्ति भवेयं तद्वशंवदः ।।१२५।।
(In return for the teachings) what may I offer to the holy feet of the Lord (true teacher); everything is lesser than soul (soul knowledge), which the Lord has given me. Hereon, I live under the protection of your guidance.
126 आ देहादि आजी, वर्तो प्रभुआधीन। दास, दास, हुं दास छु, तेह प्रभुनी दीन ।।१२६।। अद्यतस्तच्छरीरादि जायतां प्रभुचेटकम्। दासो दासोऽस्मि दासोऽस्मि तत्प्रभोर्दीनशेखरः ।।१२६।।
From hereon, I will engage this body, etc. in the service of the Lord (true teacher). Servant, I am servant, a very humble servant of the Lord.
127 षट् स्थानक समजावीने, भिन्न बताव्यो आप। म्यानथकी तरवारवत्, ए उपकार अमाप ।।१२७।। स्थानषट्कं विसंज्ञाप्य भिन्नं दर्शितवान् भवान्।। असिकोशमिवाऽऽत्मानं चामितोऽयमनुग्रहः ।।१२७।।
By explaining the six Padas (spiritual steps), you have shown me the separateness of soul (from body), like the sword in its sheath. This has been an immeasurable favor to
me.
