Verse 12

Tap any word for its meaning.

। ॥ १२ ॥

In plain words

A cave, a house, out in the open, a forest, a mountain peak, standing in water, sitting in fire — live wherever you like. Tell me: what does the address earn you? O Śambhu, the one whose inner mind itself rests always at your feet — if it is settled there, that is yoga, that one is the supreme yogi, that one is happy.

In a cave, or in a house, or even outside, in a forest, or on a mountain peak, in water, or in fire — let him dwell; of dwelling, what, tell me, is the fruit? He whose very inner instrument too, O Śambhu, always rests at your foot — if it is so established, that is yoga, and he is the supreme yogi, and he is the happy one.
