Verse 4

TamilTelugu

Tap any word for its meaning.

In plain words

Can there be an ornament apart from the gold? Leaving oneself aside, where is the body? The one who calls himself the body does not know; the one who says 'I am the Self' is the jñānī, who has seen himself. Hold to this.

Word for word

Apart from gold, can there be an ornament? Leaving oneself, where is the body? The one who calls oneself the body is the unknowing one; the one who says 'the Self' is the jñānī who has seen oneself. Hold to this.
