LAGHU YOGA VASISTHA
upon that Chidatman who is in the Akasa directly
in front of the end of my nose, when Prana and
Apana become both extinct. Thus I attained the
Supreme Seat worshipped by Devas through my
faultless vision and surrounded by rays. Thus it is,
through this path of Prana s control, that I attained
the Supreme and immaculate Tatwa devoid of
pains. Through this vision palpably in me, I never
look back (with any remorse) upon the past or the
future. I concern myself with the present only. And
the result has been that I have reached this state.
Never will I contemplate upon this or that, as my
goal. Through such a course have I been able to
prolong my life from age to age without any cares
at all. In the company of happy persons, I would be
merry; in the company of the afflicted, I would also
be afflicted. As I am the friend of the whole
universe, I have been able to live long and happy
without any pains. I would never droop amidst
excessive prosperity or dire adversity. I would be
an universal benefactor. My longevity is due to the
absence of Ahankara in me, oh Lord of Munis.
Moreover it is due to your grace that I have been
blessed with much of Tatwa-Jnana and long life.‟
