In plain words
Only the one who experiences such changeless Ānanda is man. When the Buddha was ready for the state of Nirvāṇa, Ānanda, the son of his mother's younger sister, saw the sight and shed tears. Then the Buddha: “Foolish one! Why are you grieving? Do you grieve because I am attaining Nirvāṇa? Nirvāṇa is the final truth of man. It is something we should long for and attain; to grieve over it is a mistake. Give up Māyā, see the Ātma, attain Nirvāṇa,” he taught. Embodiments of Prema! What you must do today is not rites such as yajñas and yāgas, nor sādhanas such as japa and tapas. First of all you must recognise the truth that Ānanda is within you. It is “nirguṇaṃ, nirañjanaṃ, sanātanaṃ, niketanaṃ, nitya, śuddha, buddha, mukta, nirmalasvarūpiṇaṃ.”
The Veda teaches, “All this is indeed Brahman,” and, “The world is filled with Viṣṇu.” All is the very form of Brahman. Every person, every thing, every place is the very form of God. To understand such sacred words of God in the Veda, good qualities must grow in you. The very first is Satya. You think that Satya has to do only with speech. This is a great mistake. “Trikālābādhyaṃ satyaṃ”: Satya is that which does not change in the three times. That is God. What is Dharma? Giving in charity, performing rites such as yajñas and yāgas... These are only good deeds. Dharma is to experience in action the Satya that has sprung from the heart. “Dhārayatīti dharmaḥ”: Dharma is that which is our support. What is Śānti? Śānti is the crown man wears at the time of Nirvāṇa. You long for Śānti. Where is Śānti? It is within you. “I am the very embodiment of Śānti. All is I”: you must remind yourselves of this. If you have no faith in the principle of the Ātma, however much learning you study, it is of no use.
Having studied all learning and grown very discerning, the dull-witted one does not know himself in his mind; however much he studies, in whatever way he lives, the base man cannot give up his bad qualities. Study pursued again and again yields only disputation; he can never attain full Jñāna. Why study all learning only to die? Study the learning that knows no death.
