Verse 839

Tap any word for its meaning.

। ॥ ८३९ ॥

In plain words

I am not a yogi, nor someone cut off from union, nor anyone driven by longing. I am not the angry one, not the craving one, not the grasping one. I am not bound, not joined, not set free. Witness, eternal, the inmost — that alone I am.

Close to the Sanskrit

I am not a yogi, nor one separated, nor one with passion; I am not angry, nor indeed desirous, nor greedy; I am not bound, nor even joined, nor liberated. Witness, eternal, the inward one alone — that I am.
