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
During samadhi, the objects of the experiences are not separate from the soul, hence they are not experienced. But these glorified experiences of the seeker who has come out of samadhi are inferred through recollections of the mind.
In this beginningless world, millions and millions of karma, action-impressions, are accumulated. They are all destroyed by this samadhi and pure dharma, the self-nature, grows.
The knowers of yoga call it dharmamegha -- the raincloud of dharma -- samadhi, because it showers a thousand nectar-streams of dharma, the self-nature, like a raincloud.
In this samadhi, the network of desires dissolves completely and the thickets of accumulated karma called virtue and sin are all uprooted at their very source.
At first, this boundless statement -- tattvamasi, that art thou -- being true, is only realized indirectly; then the direct knowledge, like a myrobalan fruit kept on one's own palm, is born.

The sutra
At the time of this samadhi, the moods of the mind take the form of the soul, and therefore they are not apparent.
But after the meditator has come back from his samadhi, those moods which had disappeared, are inferred by memory.
In this world, which is without a beginning, one accumulates millions of karmas conditioning from actions. They are all destroyed in this samadhi, and inner spontaneous qualities grow.
The great knowers of yoga describe this samadhi as dharmamegha, because it showers like a raincloud and inner spontaneity issues forth its thousand fruit.
Through this samadhi the whole crowd of desires become extinct. And when the holds of karma known as punya and papa, virtue and sin are uprooted, then the great saying -- "tat twamasi," that art thou -- becomes illumined.
First as indirect knowledge and then as a fruit held in your palm, it becomes direct knowledge.
