<strong>Ashtavakra</strong> said:<br />
5.1<br />
You are immaculate,<br />
touched by nothing.<br />
What is there to renounce?<br />
The mind is complex—let it go.<br />
Know the peace of dissolution.<br />
5.2<br />
The universe arises from you<br />
like foam from the sea.<br />
Know yourself as One.<br />
Enter the peace of dissolution.<br />
5: Four Ways to Dissolution<br />
5.3<br />
Like an imagined snake in a rope<br />
the universe appears to exist<br />
in the immaculate Self<br />
but does not.<br />
Seeing this you know: “There is nothing to dissolve.”<br />
5.4<br />
You are perfect, changeless,<br />
through misery and happiness,<br />
hope and despair,<br />
life and death.<br />
This is the state of dissolution.
