The Self Realization
दशा न एवी ज्यां सुधी, जीव लहे नहि जोग । मोक्षमार्ग पामे नहीं, मटे न अंतर रोग ॥ ३९॥ Dasha na evi jya sudhi, jiva lahe nahi joga, Mokshamarga pame nahi, mate na antara roga. 39 Unless one reaches such a state, No company of teachers good, Nor gets a gate, Cannot attain the freedom-road. 39

Until one attains to the state of one strongly desirous of Liberation as described above one cannot take advantage of the path of Liberation and naturally one cannot remove his internal malady-the ignorance of the true nature of the Self.
आवे ज्यां एवी दशा, ते बोधे सुविचारणा, 118011 Ave jya evi dasha, sadguru bodha suhaya, Te bodhe suvicharana, tya pragate sukhadaya. 40 While one comes up to such a state, The sermon of the saint awakesThe inner-thought, that is good fate, Soul-seeker's sleep so deep it breaks. 40

सद्गुरुबोध सुहाय I त्यां प्रगटे सुखदाय
When the disciple attains to the state of the keen aspirant for Liberation, the teachings of his living enlightened Guru work a miracle on him. Every word of the Guru is rightly interpreted and adopted. Consequently the disciple turns his mind from worldly thoughts and pursuits to the single-minded reflection and meditation on the nature of the Self. He thinks only of his soul's benefit. He rightly thinks of the method of soul's Liberation on the basis of his Guru's teachnigs. In this way he gets a glimpse of the soul's own happiness.
