Listen now
Description
25th Sutra Chapter 2 When ignorance vanishes, so does union of our soul with nature, through the orchestration of the mind. This brings liberation for the seer. Our mind turns more readily to the world’s pleasures than to the vision of the soul. Our mind is a secret enemy, and a treacherous friend. ————————————————— तदभावात् संयोगाभावो हानं तद् दृशेः कैवल्यम् tadabhavat sanyogabhavo hanan taddrisheh kaivalyam • tad - it's • abhavat - absence • sanyog - union • abhavo - absence, disappearance • hanam - removal • tat - that • drisheh - of the knowner, seer • kaivalyam .- liberation. ----------------------------- तदभावात् संयोगाभावो हानं तद् दृशेः कैवल्यम्॥२.२५॥
