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
One who has attained oneness with brahma, the absolute reality, while living, will remain so even after leaving the body. Therefore, o innocent one! Becoming awakened be void of all choice in duality.
When one sees the non-dual soul through nirvikalpa samadhi -- the choiceless awakening -- that is the moment when the knot of ignorance in the heart dissolves completely.
Consolidating the self-ness, dropping the I-ness etcetera, exist with indifference to them, like with pots and clothes, etc.
All titles -- from Brahma the Creator god, to a stone -- are false. Therefore, rooted only in the soul, see your own soul everywhere.
I myself am Brahma -- the creator god; I myself am Vishnu -- the sustainer god; I myself am Shiva -- the destroyer god; I myself am Indra -- the chief of all gods; I myself am this universe, and I myself am all. There is nothing other than myself.

The sutra
One who has attained to the eternal absolute shall remain so even after death. So, oh innocent, attain samadhi, the highest state of unity with the supreme, and be free of the choices.
The knot of ignorance in the heart is destroyed, the moment one achieves self-realization, through nirvikalp samadhi, choiceless awareness.
One should give up the self based on ego by steadying oneself in unity with the higher self. And one should be indifferent to egoism, et cetera, as one remains indifferent to pots, clothes, and other things.
From Brahma the Creator, down to the stone, all appearances are false; therefore, see everywhere your own excellent self, which is ever-unchanging.
The self is the Brahman, the self is Vishnu, the self is Indra, the self is Shiva, the self is the world, and the self is everything; and there is nothing other than the self.
