synopsis
Reader of the sutra: Ma Yoga Taru, also chanting.
Hindi part:
(Translated as in Finger Pointing to the Moon on CD-ROM)
The sutra
This body is made from the excreta of your mother and father and is full of excreta and flesh. Therefore, moving away from it, as from a chandal, the lowly untouchable, and becoming brahma, the absolute reality, be fulfilled.
O seeker of the truth! By knowing the oneness of the soul and the supreme soul, just like the oneness of ghatakash, the sky within a pot, and mahakash, the sky without a pot, be always peaceful.
Becoming the self-illuminated, self-created, sustainer of all and the eternal soul brahma, the absolute reality, drop the sense of your body and also of the universal body, as if these were containers of excreta.
Investing the sense of ego that has controlled the body into the ever blissful conscious self, give up the gross body and be your immortal lone soul.
O innocent one! Just as a city may be seen reflected in a mirror, I am that brahma, the absolute reality, in whom the reflection of this world is seen -- knowing this, o sinless one, be fulfilled.

The sutra
This body is born out of excreta of the mother and the father, and is full of filth and flesh; therefore discarding it like chandala, the lowly person, become one with Brahman and be fulfilled.
O sage, just as an inner space of a pot is merged with the outer space, once the pot is broken, merge your own self with the universal self; become indivisible and attain eternal silence.
Be a light unto yourself; become the self which holds everything in itself, and give up your own body as well as the universal body, the brahmanda, as if they are pots full of dirt.
Establish your intellect, which identifies itself with the body, in the blissful self which is pure knowledge -- thus discarding your subtle body, lingasharir. Become the absolute, for all times to come.
O innocent! This illusory world is seen like one sees the reflection of a city in a mirror.
Therefore, realizing that "I am the Brahman," be fulfilled.
