lingam utsṛjya: not identifying yourself with the subtle
body.
296
kevalo bhava: be unattached; or, be devoid of any difference of like or unlike or of internal differences. For (the sense of) difference arises from ajñāna and is destroyed when it is realised that "the Paramātman is I" and liberation (kaivalya: the sense of being the lone Reality) is clearly seen as the natural condition.
292
यत्रेष जगदाभासः दर्पणान्तः पुरं यथा ।
ag zeugfafa arcat gegeut afaðufa 11 292 11 yatraisa jagadabhāsaḥ darpaṇāntaḥ puram yatha | tad brahmahamiti jñātvā kṛtakṛtyo bhaviṣyasi ||
Where this reflection of the world is like a city (reflected) in a mirror, realising that you are that Brahman, you will remain in the equipoise of a fulfilled life.
Even as a city, men, mountain, river, palace etc., are reflected in a whole unbroken mirror though they do not exist inside it, so too this world which is mithya is reflected in (super-imposed on) Brahman. Realise that you are that Brahman and then you will have achieved fulfilment.
293
यत्सत्यभूतं निजरूपमाद्यं चिदद्वयानन्दमरूपमक्रियम् ।
तदेत्य मिथ्यावपुरुत्सृजैतत् शैलूष वद्वेषमुपात्तमात्मनः ।। २९३ ॥
yatsatyabhūtam nijarūpam ādyam
cid advayanandam arupam akriyam tadetya mithyavapurutsṛjaitat
pam.
śailuṣavad veṣamupāttamātmanaḥ ||
Attaining that which is the Real, which is your primordial nature, which is the non-dual intelligence, the blissful and actionless, reject like an actor throwing off his mask this mithya body which has accrued to the atman.
satyabhūtam nijarūpam: Your true nature: vāstavikam svarū
etya: having attained; knowledge (realisation) itself is meant
