Verse 455

Tap any word for its meaning.

- । ॥ ४५५ ॥

In plain words

For the sage who now rests in the Self as nothing but Brahman itself, no longer identified with any limiting adjunct at all, it makes no sense to keep insisting that prārabdha is still real for him — that would be like telling someone wide awake that he's still tangled up in something from last night's dream.

Close to the Sanskrit

For the sage who abides in the Self, purely as Brahman itself, devoid of identification with any limiting adjunct — talk of the continued existence of prārabdha is not fitting, just as talk of a connection with a dream-object would not be fitting for one who is awake.
