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

Beyond reality¹, O great god, tell me out of your grace.

1. Beyond the division of material existence. ईश्वर उवाच । īśvara uvāca | Īśvara said: सर्वभावपदातीतं ज्ञानरूपं निरञ्जनम् । वारिवत् स्फुरितं स्वस्मिंस् तत्राहङ्कृतिर् उत्थिता ॥ १३ ॥ sarvabhāvapadātītaṃ jñānarūpaṃ nirañjanam | vārivat sphuritaṃ svasmiṃs tatrāhaṅkṛtir utthitā || 13 ||
2. Beyond all states of being, in the form of (direct) knowledge,¹ immaculate, like (calm) water, it manifests in oneself, there (where the) ego arises.
3. True knowledge is not learned, it is known by direct experience. पञ्चात्मकम् अभूत् पिण्डं धातुबद्धं गुणात्मकम् । सुखदुःखैः सदा युक्तं जीवभावनयाकुलम् ॥ १४ ॥ pañcātmakam abhūt piṇḍaṃ dhātubaddhaṃ guṇātmakam | sukhaduḥkhaiḥ sadā yuktaṃ jīvabhāvanayākulam || 14 ||
4. The body made of the five elements,¹ bound by the humours,² characterized by qualities, always associated with pleasure and pain, agitated by the notion of being a living (breathing) being.
5. The five great elements (pañca-mahā-bhūta) of Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether.
6. Five airs or humours, which are “the five aspects of vital breath,” Prāṇa, Apāna, Samāna, Vyāna and Udāna. See Śaṅkara Bhāṣya (Commentary), verse 3, Māṇḍūkya Upaniṣad. तेन जीवाभिधा भोक्ता विशुद्धे परमात्मनि । कामः क्रोधो भयं चिन्ता लोभो मोहो मदो रुजाः ॥ १५ ॥ tena jīvābhidhā bhoktā viśuddhe paramātmani | kāmaḥ krodho bhayaṃ cintā lobho moho mado rujāḥ || 15 ||
7. Therefore, because of that reason, identified¹ as the individual self, the enjoyer,² being separate from the pure Supreme Self, from this,³,⁴ arises desire, anger, fear, anxiety, greed, delusion, pride, and disease.
