synopsis
(Translated as in The Mahageeta, Vol 1 on CD-ROM)
The sutra
Janak said:
"Light is my very nature. I am not other than it. When the universe illuminates itself, then it is verily I that shine.
Amazing that through ignorance the imaginary universe appears in me, just as silver appears in mother of pearl, a snake in a rope, or a mirage in the rays of the sun.
Just as a pot dissolves into clay, a wave into water, or a bracelet into gold, the universe which has emanated from me/is born out of me will dissolve into me.
Amazing am I, I bow down to myself. When the whole world shall perish from Brahma to the very clumps of grass I shall not perish. Imperishable am I.
Amazing am I, I bow down to myself. Though embodied, I am that one who neither goes anywhere nor comes from anywhere but abides pervading beyond encircling the universe.
Amazing am I, I bow down to myself. None here is as capable as I, who have been supporting the universe for an eternity without even touching it with the/a body.
Amazing am I, I bow down to myself. I have nothing at all or I have all that is encompassed in speech or thought."
