- notes
- synopsis
- Reader of the sutra: Ma Yoga Taru, also chanting.
- The sutra
- The first stage, to which contentment and bliss impart sweetness,
- Springs from the innermost recesses of the seeker's heart,
- As if nectar has issued forth from the heart of the earth.
- At the inception of this stage the innermost recess
- Becomes a field for the coming of the other stages.
- Afterwards the seeker attains the second and third stages.
- Of the three, the third is the highest,
- Because on its attainment all the modifications of will come to an end.
- One who practices the three stages finds his ignorance dead,
- And on entering the fourth stage
- He sees everything, everywhere, equally.
- At that moment he is so strongly embedded in the experience of
- Nonduality -- advaita -- that the experience itself disappears.
- Thus, on attaining the fourth stage
- The seeker finds the world as illusory as a dream.
- So while the first three stages are called waking ones,
- The fourth is dreaming.
