निरौपम्यस्तव THE HYMN TO THE INCOMPARABLE ONE
निरौपभ्यं नमस्तुभ्यं निःस्वभाववेदिने ।
यस्त्वं दृष्टिविपन्नस्य लोकस्यास्य हितोद्यतः ।।१।। O incomparable One, homage unto Thee, Who knowest (the thruth that phenomena) have no essence of their own! Thou art eager of the benefit of this world, misled by different theories.
न च नाम त्वया किंचिदृष्टं बौद्धेन चक्षुषा ।
अनुत्तरा च ते नाथ दृष्टिस्तत्त्वदर्शिनी ।।२।। Nothing is seen by Thyself with the eye of the enlightened One, Sublime, O Lord, is thy view which perceives the truth.
न बौद्धा न च बोधव्यमस्तीह परमार्थतः ।
अहो परमदुर्बोधां धर्मतां बुद्धवानसि ।।३।। . From the standpiont of metaphysical truth there in neither knower nothing to be known. Oh! Thou knowest the reality very difficult to be known.
न त्वयोत्पादितः कश्चिद्धर्मो नापि निरोधितः ।
समतादर्शनैव प्राप्तं पादमनुत्तरम् ।।४।। Thou dost nither create nor destroy anything; having perceived the sameness of everything, thou reachedst the most sublime condition.
न संसारापकर्षेण त्वया निर्वाणमीप्सितम् ।
शान्तिस्तेऽधिगता नाम संसारानुपलब्धितः ।।५।। Thou dost not take nirvāṇa as the suppression of saņsāra, since thou, O Lord dost not perceive any samsāra, thou obtainedst quiescence.
