1 - 4
5.1 All this arises out of you, like a bubble out of the sea. Knowing yourself like this to be but one, you can go to your rest.
5.2 In spite of being in front of your eyes, all this, being insubstantial, does not exist in you, spotless as you are. It is an appearance like the snake in a rope, so you can go to your rest.
5.3 Equal in pain and in pleasure, equal in hope and in disappointment, equal in life and in death, and complete as you are, you can go to your rest.
5.4 Ashtavakra said: I am infinite like space, and the natural world is like a jar. To know this is knowledge, and then there is neither renunciation, acceptance or cessation of it.
