How can there be self knowledge for him whose knowledge depends on what he sees. The wise do not see this and that, but see themselves as unending.॥40॥
क्वात्मनो दर्शनं तस्य
यद् दृष्टमवलंबते।
धीरास्तं तं न पश्यन्ति
पश्यन्त्यात्मानमव्ययम्॥१८- ४०॥
अज्ञानी को आत्म-साक्षात्कार कैसे हो सकता है जब वह दृश्य पदार्थों के आश्रय को स्वीकार करता है। ज्ञानी पुरुष तो वे हैं जो दृश्य पदार्थों को न देखते हुए अपने अविनाशी स्वरूप को ही देखते हैं॥४०॥
How can there be self knowledge for him whose knowledge depends on what he sees. The wise do not see this and that, but see themselves as unending.॥40॥
Ashtavakra Gita
