योगबीज (गुरु गोरखनाथ परम्परा - महायोग, प्राण-अपान एकत्व एवं कैवल्य-सिद्धि सटीक)

mahāviṣṇumaheśānāṃ pralayeṣv api yoginām | nāsti pāto layasthānāṃ mahātattve vivartinām || 65 || 65. For the great Viṣṇu and Maheśā, even in the times of dissolution (pralayas), for the yogis, there is no fall; for those abiding in the state of dissolution, within the great revolving principle (mahatattva)¹, there is no downfall.

1. Within the great torsion of the shining womb of all creation (the axle-hole of the rotating Kālacakra “wheel of time”). वेदान्ततर्कोक्तिभिर् आगमैश् च नानाविधैः शास्त्रकदम्बकैः च । ध्यानादिभिः सत्करणैर् न गम्यं चिन्तामणिं त्व् एकगुरुं विहाय || ६६ || vedāntatarkoktibhir āgamaiś ca nānāvidhaiḥ śāstrakadambakaiś ca | dhyānādibhiḥ satkaraṇair na gamyaṃ cintāmaṇiṃ tv ekaguruṃ vihāya || 66 ||
2. With the sayings of Vedānta and logic, with Āgamas, and various scriptures, with meditation and other good practises, the Cintāmaṇi¹ is not attainable, except by abandoning all but the one (true) guru.
3. The sparkling wish fulfilling thought-gem or germinating seed-star of light (the “seed of yoga”). A fabulous gem supposed to yield to its possessor all desires (the philosopher's stone). For further information, refer to the Skanda Purāṇa. N.B.* To some, the cintāmaṇi is a wish-fulfilling jewel, to those without desire, it becomes an open doorway. देव्युवाच । devy uvāca | The goddess said: ज्ञानाद् एव हि मोक्षं तु वदन्ति ज्ञानिनः सदा । न कथं सिध्यति ततो योगोऽसौ मोक्षदो भवेत् || ६७ || jñānād eva hi mokṣaṃ tu vadanti jñāninaḥ sadā | na kathaṃ sidhyati tato yogo ‘sau mokṣado bhavet || 67 ||
4. The wise always say that liberation (mokṣa) indeed comes from (direct) knowledge (jñāna) alone; then how can it be perfected? Hence, this, yoga, becomes the giver of liberation. ईश्वर उवाच । īśvara uvāca |
