Hindi part:
(Translated as in Finger Pointing to the Moon on CD-ROM)
The sutra
In the cavity of the heart, which is situated within the body, an unborn eternal lives.
Earth is its body, it dwells within the earth, but the earth does not know it.
Water is its body, it dwells within the water, but the water does not know it.
Light is its body, it dwells within the light, but the light does not know it.
Air is its body, it dwells within the air but the air does not know it.
Sky is its body, it dwells within the sky, but the sky does not know it.
Mind is its body, it dwells within the mind, but the mind does not know it.
Intellect is its body, it dwells within the intellect, but the intellect does not know it.
Ego is its body, it dwells within the ego, but the ego does not know it.
Reasoning mind is its body, it dwells within the reasoning mind, but the reasoning mind does not know it.
The unmanifest is its body, it dwells within the unmanifest, but the unmanifest does not know it.
The indestructible is its body, it dwells within the indestructible, but the indestructible does not know it.
Death is its body, it dwells within death, but death does not know it.
It is the innermost self of all these elements, its sins are all destroyed, and it is the one divine god Narayana -- the sustainer of all human beings.
The body, the senses, etcetera, are non-soul matter, and the feeling of 'I-myness' over them is adhyas -- illusion. Therefore, an intelligent person should drop this illusion through allegiance to Brahma -- the absolute reality.

The projection of the ego on these, is adhyasa, illusion. Therefore the wise man should destroy this illusion by having faith in Brahman.
