8. Kaivalyabeej Shun? What is the Seed of Enlightenment?
|તોટક છંદ} (Totak Chhand) (“Totak" metre)
યમનિયમ સંજમ આપ કિયો, પુનિ ત્યાગ બિરાગ અથાગ લહ્યો; વનવાસ લિયો મુખ મૌન રહ્યો, દૃઢ આસન પદ્મ લગાય દિયો.
I have practiced vows, codes of conduct and restraint by myself. Even renunciation and detachment I have strongly taken many times, Retreated into the forest, observed silence, Firmly sat in lotus position. (1)
Yamaniyam sanjam aap kiyo, puni tyaag biraag athaag lahyo; Vanvaas liyo mukh maun rahyo, dradh aasan padma lagaay diyo.
મન પૌન નિરોધ સ્વબોધ કિયો, હઠજોગ પ્રયોગ સુતાર ભયો; જપ ભેદ જપે તપ ચૌંહિ તપે, ઉરસેંહિ ઉદાસી લહી સબપે.
I have silenced my mind by my own methods, Practiced Hatha Yoga and concentrated hard, Conducted various forms of recitation and austerity, and made my heart indifferent to all things. (2)
Man paun nirodh svabodh kiyo, hathjoga prayog su taar bhayo; Jap bhed jape tap tyaunhi tape, ursenhi udaasee lahee sabpen.
