श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
इति प्राप्य परं योगमुपदेशमनुत्तमम् ।
जीवन्मुक्तो बभूवासौ ततो देवगुरोः सुतः ॥ १ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
iti prāpya paraṃ yogamupadeśamanuttamam |
jīvanmukto babhūvāsau tato devaguroḥ sutaḥ || 1 ||

Vasishtha related:—Kacha the son of the divine preceptor Brihaspati, being thus advised by his venerable sire in the best kind of yoga meditation; began to muse in himself as one liberated from his personal entity, and lost and absorbed in essence of the sole and self-existent Deity. So says the sufi Sadi:—"Dui rachum badar kardam Eke binan Eke danam. &c."When I kept the duality of my personality out of my sight, I saw before me all blending in one, ineffable blaze of light.
