________________ 240 VIVEKACHUDAMANI 44 नैव क्रियाफलमपीषवेक्षते स स्वानन्दसान्द्ररसपानसुमन्तचित्तः ॥ ५५२ ॥ 552. He neither directs the sense-organs to their objects, nor detaches them from these, but stays like an unconcerned spectator. And he has not the least regard for the fruits of actions, his mind being thoroughly inebriated with drinking the undiluted elixir of the Bliss of Atman. [For in the last line of the Sloka, there is another reading सानन्द which should be translated as including all minor joys.” ] www.ApniHindi.com लक्ष्यालक्ष्यगतिं त्यक्ता यस्तिष्ठेत्केवलात्मना । शिव पव स्वयं साक्षादयं ब्रह्म विदुत्तमः ॥ ५५३ ॥ 553. He who, giving up all considerations of the fitness' or otherwise of objects of meditation, lives as the Absolute Atman, is verily Shiva Himself, and he is the best among the knowers of Brahman. [ Fitness &c. - A fit object is to be welcomed, and an unfit object to be shunned. ] जीवन्नेव सदा मुक्तः कृतार्थो ब्रह्मवित्तमः । उपाधिनाशाद्ब्रह्मैव सन् ब्रह्माप्येति निर्द्वयम् ॥ ५५४ ॥ http://www.ApniHindi.com
