Om, homage to Ādinātha; homage to Mīnanātha; homage to the wise Śāraṅginātha.

For those engaged in laya and the rest, whose minds are eager in strife, Gorakṣa has spoken this, made of awakening and proof.

लयादिग्रतिपननानां करहोत्सुकचेतसाम्‌ | गोरक्षकेण कथितः प्रमोध~प्रत्ययात्मकः ॥ २॥

layādigratipananānāṃ karahotsukacetasām | gorakṣakeṇa kathitaḥ pramodha~pratyayātmakaḥ || 2||

Laya-yoga, haṭha, mantra-yoga the third, and the fourth rāja-yoga, free of duality.

लययोगो हद्व म॑त्रयोगस्ततीषकः | चतुर्थो राजयोगश्च द्विधाभवविव्ितः ॥ २॥

layayogo hadva ma॑trayogastatīṣakaḥ | caturtho rājayogaśca dvidhābhavavivitaḥ || 2||

Where the mind is in constant dissolution, that is called laya; who delights in the method of the breath is haṭha; who rests on the mantra-form, that is mantra-yoga; what is free of mind-movement is rāja-yoga.

याच्चे्तसन्ततलयः स ठ्यः प्रदिष्टः | यस्तु प्रमञ्जनविधानरतो हटस्सः | यो मंत्रमूतिक्शगः स तु मन्त्रयोगः | यधित्तवृत्तिरहितः स तु राजयोगः ॥ ४ ॥

Rāja-yoga is sometimes twofold, by herbs and by inner practice; haṭha too is somewhere twofold, by serving wind and bindu. [?]

ओषध्योऽभ्यात्मकशवेति राजयोगो हिधा कचित्‌ | हठो ऽपि fetta: कापि षायुविन्दुनिषेवणात्‌ ॥ ५॥

oṣadhyo'bhyātmakaśaveti rājayogo hidhā kacit | haṭho 'pi fetta: kāpi ṣāyuvinduniṣevaṇāt || 5||

Mantra that is the cause of the six acts is not called this; the mind may somehow sink like an insect into the nose and such — yet by the yogis' various practices the wind does not leave its base, without the glorious rāja-yoga, abode of eternal bliss.

पटरकमप्रतिपत्तिहेतुकमिदं मंत्रं न तद्‌ च्यते | भ्रनासादिषु कीटवन्न (द) मि मनो मग्रं कथश्चिद्धवेत ॥ आधारे पवनो न याति विविधादभ्यासतो योगिनाम्‌ | नित्यानन्दमयासभावनिलयच्छीराजयोगाहते ॥ ६ ॥

Without one's own state, no eternal joy, no lordship; even daily union with divine women, without meditation, is nothing. How can a horse be born of a she-elephant, a camel of a donkey, rice from millet, by force? Say, O lord. [?]

नित्य dorset ठमेन्न Tat (तिः) नेवाधिपत्यं तथा | दिव्यस्लीनवसङ्गमोऽप्यनुदिन न ध्यायतो SA I हस्तिन्यास्तुरगः खरा करभः शाल्योदनं कोद्रवात्‌ | जायन्ते हटतः कथं वद विमो स्वीयं ard विना ॥ ७॥

Some drink urine, some eat saliva, some lift the bindu upward from the young woman's womb; some, skilled in moving the anus, eat the elements of all the body's veins — no body-perfection for them, their own mind lost, apart from this rāja-yoga.

केचिन्सूतरं पिबन्ति प्रमरमरानतः केचिदश्नन्ति लालां | केवित्काठ प्रविष्टो युवतिभगवतद्िनदुमूध्वं नयन्ति ॥ केचित्खादन्ति धातन्रिखिलतनुसिरा पायुसश्वारदक्षाः | नेषा देहसिद्विर्विंगतनिजमनो राजयोगाच्तेऽस्मात्‌ ॥ ८ ॥

When the mind has reached sameness and the wind goes into the middle, that is amarolī, vajrolī, sahajolī — so it is held.

चित्तो समत्वमापन्ने वायो व्रनति मध्यमे एषाऽमरोली वजोटीतदामति मतेति च (सहनोरी प्रजायते ) ॥ It

So in the Śrī Sampuṭa: holding the breath by force in the fish's belly, the Lord… having spoken this on the mountain — 'it is time, not mind' — he told Mīnanātha with Pārvatī, eternal and long, I praise. [?]

तथाच भ्रीसम्पुटे -- विभ्राणः पवनं हटान्नियमितं Washes मीनोदरे । FIN भगवान्विपरच्य सहसा यावग्नयेतत्यसो I तं चोक्त्वा गिरिदिन भाषितमिदं कारो न चेतः एं ¦ पावत्या मह मीननाथमवदननित्यं चिरं नीमि ॥। १० ॥

If by herbs one lived free of trouble in the world, why do physicians, seized by sickness and old age, die?

यदि जीवेदोपधीमिः संसारं निरुपद्र | आमयास्ता जराग्रस्त प्रियन्ते भिषजः कथम्‌ ॥ ११॥

Clever followers of Caraka, minds sharp, devoted to hearing Suśruta — how, without the herb of no-mind, does all become … ? [? text damaged]

Bindu and nāda are the great herbs, present in all beings; not knowing these two, all die, lacking a guru.

विन्दुनादौ महौषध्यो विते सवजन्तुषु । तावविज्ञाय सर्वेऽपि प्रियन्ते गुरुवजिताः ॥ १३॥

[It] wastes the wind, the sun and fire; from this the … moves, the seed falls. [? badly damaged]

Te·a gā·yuṃ bhā·nu·map·ri·ca kṣa·ya·ti | TI·TAN ca·lat·yas·mād·rī·jaś·va·ti Weld || 14||

Who knows the essence of these two… how could fear of decay, old age, disease, sin and death be his?

यो जानात्यनयोस्मारं ARTETA: | काय्ेशाजराव्याधिपापमृत्युमयं कुतः ॥ १५॥

When the wind goes out and the sun-ray goes round Meru's path, at the fire-state the moon fills the sky-body; when bliss rises, delusion's darkness leaves you; at the brahmarandhra the union of Śiva and Śivā triumphs, something unprecedented. [?]

Amarogha alone is called rāja-yoga; joined to laya and the rest, how is a fourth given? [?]

Mild, middling, strong and strongest — so the practitioner is known; here the ladder is told.

मृदुमध्याध मात्रध अधिमात्रतरस्तथा | ATT साधको ज्ञेयस्तत्सोपानमिहोच्यते ॥ १८ ॥

mṛdumadhyādha mātradha adhimātratarastathā | ATT sādhako jñeyastatsopānamihocyate || 18 ||

Of slight zeal, slight passion, dependent on others, a jester, sick, weak in spirit, a householder — he is called mild.

मन्दोत्सादी मन्दरागी पराधीनो विदषकः | व्याधिस्थो हीनसत्वश्च ग्र ( गृ) हवासी मृदुः स्मृतः ॥ ५९ 1

mandotsādī mandarāgī parādhīno vidaṣakaḥ | vyādhistho hīnasatvaśca gra ( gṛ) havāsī mṛduḥ smṛtaḥ || 59 1

Even-minded, … even in body, even in refuge, neutral in all works — he is called middling.

समबुद्धिः AAT समकायः समाश्रयः | मध्यस्थः सवेकार्येषु मध्यसत्योऽभिधीयते ॥ २० ॥

samabuddhiḥ AAT samakāyaḥ samāśrayaḥ | madhyasthaḥ savekāryeṣu madhyasatyo'bhidhīyate || 20 ||

Endowed with vigour, in his prime, spirited, … a hero — he is called strong.

्मावीयेनयेधुक्तो वयस्थस्यत्ववानपि । aria खरशरस्सोऽधिमात्रौ निगद्यते ।॥ २९ ॥

Practised in all śāstras, charming, brave and vigorous, … unchanging — [he is the strongest].

स्ैशाखकृताभ्यासो मनोज्ञो वीयेशोयवान्‌ । निमाहस्यवेयम्पत्नो निर्विकारो FEET 11 २२॥

The strongest, great-bodied, goes forth; such cross the sea of becoming and carry others across.

अधिमात्रतरस्सोऽपि महाकायः प्रबत॑ते | तरन्ति च भवाम्भोधि तारयन्ति परानपि tl २२३॥

To the mild a mantra is given; to the middling laya is taught; to the strong give haṭha; amarogha to the great lord [the strongest].

मृदवे दीयते मंत्रो मध्याय खय उच्यते | अधिमात्र हठं दद्यादमरोघो महेश्वरे ॥ २४॥

There, the mantra: 'Aham' (Om), the one-syllable mantra with praṇava first; meditating Śiva in the heart in the twelve-petalled circle.

तत्र मत्रम्‌ः- अह ( ओ ) मिति एकाक्षर मंत्रं तत्सप्रणवादिकम्‌ । शिवं aed हृदि ध्यात्वा दादर भिन्नमण्डले 11 २५॥

tatra matramḥ- aha ( o ) miti ekākṣara maṃtraṃ tatsapraṇavādikam | śivaṃ aed hṛdi dhyātvā dādara bhinnamaṇḍale 11 25||

tat·ra mat·ramḥ- a·ha ( o ) mi·ti e·kāk·ṣa·ra maṃt·raṃ tat·sap·ra·ṇa·vā·di·kam | śi·vaṃ a·ed hṛ·di dhyāt·vā dā·da·ra bhin·na·maṇ·ḍa·le 11 25||

By a lakh of repetitions [one conquers] death…; by a tenth part offering fire with honey, ghee and water.

एकलक्षजपान्मृत्युं AAAI | दशौ हवनं इत्वा क्षो दरभीरध॒ताम्बुने; | २६ ॥

ekalakṣajapānmṛtyuṃ AAAI | daśau havanaṃ itvā kṣo darabhīradha॒tāmbune; | 26 ||

Now laya: whoever meditates in his own body on the god Śiva in Kāmarūpa, liṅga-shaped like a jewel, streaming nectar —

अथल्यः-- कामरूपे शिवं देवै रिङ्गामं मणिसन्निभम्‌ | खवन्तं चामृतरसं यो ध्यायेन्निजविग्रहे ॥ २७ ॥

athalyaḥ-- kāmarūpe śivaṃ devai riṅgāmaṃ maṇisannibham | khavantaṃ cāmṛtarasaṃ yo dhyāyennijavigrahe || 27 ||

a·thal·yaḥ-- kā·ma·rū·pe śi·vaṃ de·vai riṅ·gā·maṃ ma·ṇi·san·ni·bham | kha·van·taṃ cā·mṛ·ta·ra·saṃ yo dhyā·yen·ni·ja·vig·ra·he || 27 ||

…he attains perfection; free of wrinkles and grey hair he lives three hundred years.

HATTA सिद्विभाग्भवेत्‌ । वलीपलितनिषक्तो जीवेदव्दशतत्रयम्‌ I २८ ॥

HATTA sidvibhāgbhavet | valīpalitaniṣakto jīvedavdaśatatrayam I 28 ||

HAT·TA sid·vi·bhāg·bha·vet | va·lī·pa·li·ta·ni·ṣak·to jī·ve·dav·da·śa·tat·ra·yam I 28 ||

Now haṭha: pressing the yoni with the left heel, stretching the right leg, holding it with both hands, fill the mouth [with breath].

अथ हट -- पादमूलेन वामेन योनिं सम्पीड्य दक्षिणम्‌ । प्रसारिते पदे कृत्वा कराभ्यां पूरयेन्युखे ॥ २५॥।

atha haṭa -- pādamūlena vāmena yoniṃ sampīḍya dakṣiṇam | prasārite pade kṛtvā karābhyāṃ pūrayenyukhe || 25|||

a·tha ha·ṭa -- pā·da·mū·le·na vā·me·na yo·niṃ sam·pīḍ·ya dak·ṣi·ṇam | pra·sā·ri·te pa·de kṛt·vā ka·rābh·yāṃ pū·ra·yen·yu·khe || 25|||

Placing the lock in the throat, the wind rising from the base — as a snake struck by a stick becomes stick-straight,

कष्टे बन्धं समारोप्याधारादरायुमृर्वतः । यथा दण्डाहतस्पपां दण्डाकारः प्रजायते ॥ ३० ॥

kaṣṭe bandhaṃ samāropyādhārādarāyumṛrvataḥ | yathā daṇḍāhataspapāṃ daṇḍākāraḥ prajāyate || 30 ||

kaṣ·ṭe ban·dhaṃ sa·mā·rop·yā·dhā·rā·da·rā·yu·mṛr·va·taḥ | ya·thā daṇ·ḍā·ha·tas·pa·pāṃ daṇ·ḍā·kā·raḥ pra·jā·ya·te || 30 ||

so the coiled śakti Kuṇḍalī suddenly becomes straight; then a death-state arises, resting in the two cavities. Great diseases, great afflictions, death and the rest are conquered; so the wise call this Mahāmudrā.

FATT तदा शक्तिः कुण्डली सहसा भवेत्‌ | तदास मरणावस्था जायते दिपुटाश्रिता ॥ 32 tl महारोगा महाका जीयन्ते मरणादयः | Wega तेनेनां वदन्ति विबुधोत्तमाः ॥ २२॥

FATT tadā śaktiḥ kuṇḍalī sahasā bhavet | tadāsa maraṇāvasthā jāyate dipuṭāśritā || 32 tl mahārogā mahākā jīyante maraṇādayaḥ | Wega tenenāṃ vadanti vibudhottamāḥ || 22||

FATT ta·dā śak·tiḥ kuṇ·ḍa·lī sa·ha·sā bha·vet | ta·dā·sa ma·ra·ṇā·vas·thā jā·ya·te di·pu·ṭāś·ri·tā || 32 tl ma·hā·ro·gā ma·hā·kā jī·yan·te ma·ra·ṇā·da·yaḥ | We·ga te·ne·nāṃ va·dan·ti vi·bu·dhot·ta·māḥ || 22||

When Mahāmudrā is done, it succeeds for the practitioner; … Mahābandha …

महायुद्राकृता यन साधकाय प्रसिध्यति | RAIS महाबन्धो FTAA | ३३ ॥

mahāyudrākṛtā yana sādhakāya prasidhyati | RAIS mahābandho FTAA | 33 ||

ma·hā·yud·rā·kṛ·tā ya·na sā·dha·kā·ya pra·sidh·ya·ti | RAIS ma·hā·ban·dho FTA·A | 33 ||

Holding the wind in the mouth, chin on the heart, press the yoni firmly and set the mind in the middle.

MIN मुखे वायुं हृदय चु (च ) बुक कतं | निभृतं योनिमाढुशवेन्मनो मध्ये नियोजयेत्‌ ।॥ ३४॥

MIN mukhe vāyuṃ hṛdaya cu (ca ) buka kataṃ | nibhṛtaṃ yonimāḍhuśavenmano madhye niyojayet ||| 34||

MIN mu·khe vā·yuṃ hṛ·da·ya cu (ca ) bu·ka ka·taṃ | ni·bhṛ·taṃ yo·ni·mā·ḍhu·śa·ven·ma·no madh·ye ni·yo·ja·yet ||| 34||

This stops the upward course of all the channels; making the triveṇī-meeting, it brings the mind to Kedāra.

अयं च सर्वनादीनामूध्वं गतिविगोधनः। वरिवेणीसद्मं कृता केदारं प्रापयन्मनः | ३५॥

ayaṃ ca sarvanādīnāmūdhvaṃ gativigodhanaḥ| variveṇīsadmaṃ kṛtā kedāraṃ prāpayanmanaḥ | 35||

a·yaṃ ca sar·va·nā·dī·nā·mūdh·vaṃ ga·ti·vi·go·dha·naḥ| va·ri·ve·ṇī·sad·maṃ kṛ·tā ke·dā·raṃ prā·pa·yan·ma·naḥ | 35||

As a woman full of beauty is barren without a man, so Mahāmudrā and Mahābandha are fruitless without [Mahāvedha].

रूपलावण्यसम्पना यथा छरी पुरूपं विना | महापुद्रामहाबन्धो निष्फलो TIAA ॥ ३६ ॥

Hold the stretched leg firmly with both hands; then swinging…

र्य प्रसारितं पादं कराभ्यां धारयेद्‌ च्टम्‌ । आन्दोलनं ततः RITA API ॥ ३७ ॥

rya prasāritaṃ pādaṃ karābhyāṃ dhārayed cṭam | āndolanaṃ tataḥ RITA API || 37 ||

rya pra·sā·ri·taṃ pā·daṃ ka·rābh·yāṃ dhā·ra·yed cṭam | ān·do·la·naṃ ta·taḥ RI·TA A·PI || 37 ||

Then striking again, steady with the throat-seal, stopping the wind's course, doing inhale and retention,

पुनरास्फालनं कव्या सुस्थिरं कण्डयुद्रया | वायुना गतिमाहत्य करत्वा पूरकङ्कम्भको ॥ ३८ ॥

With hands even and feet even, … pressing the four with the anus. [?]

sa·ma·has·ta·yu·go bhūt·vā sa·ma·pā·da·yu·gas·ta·thā | PA·CHA ca·tuṣ·pī·ḍa tu pā·yu·nā || 32

… by wind, thunder and fire-points; seizing the two cavities, the wind throbs quickly.

MARA वायुवज्नाप्रिकोटिभिः | पुटदयं समाक्रम्य वायुः स्फुरति सत्वरम्‌ ॥ Vo II

One should know the joining of moon, sun and fire for nectar; with the death-state … then whence fear of death?

सोमतूयाधिसम्बन्धं जानीयादमृताय वे । मृतावस्स्था ATTA ततो मृत्युभयं कुतः ॥ ४१॥

These three are of great merit, destroying old age and death; let it be done eightfold, each watch, day after day.

एतत्रयं महागुण्यं जरामृत्युषिनाशचनम्‌ | अष्टधा क्रियते चेतत्‌ यामे यामे दिने दिने ॥.४२॥

Increasing strength, granting aṇimā and the other powers, gathering merit, ever shattering sin's flood. For those rightly trained, little at first practice; avoid fire, women and the road at the start.

बदवबरद्धिकरं चैव अणिमादिगुणप्रदम्‌ | पण्ये सञ्चयसंहारि पापोधमिदुरं सदा NB सम्यगिक्षावतामेवं स्वल्पं प्रथमसाधने | बद्िस्रीपथसेवानामादौ वनेनमाचरेत्‌ ।॥ ४४॥

Ārambha, ghaṭa, the third paricaya, and niṣpatti: in all yogas the yoga-state is fourfold.

आरम्भ धटश्ेव प्रत्ययश्च तृतीयकः | rata: सर्वयोगेषु योगावस्था चतुर्विधा ॥ ४५॥

ārambha dhaṭaśeva pratyayaśca tṛtīyakaḥ | rata: sarvayogeṣu yogāvasthā caturvidhā || 45||

At the Brahmā-knot … the unstruck sound is heard in the body, with a varied tinkling.

्रहग्रन्थे मवेद्‌ TATA... FATT । विचित्रक्चणको देहेनाहतः श्रयते ध्वनिः ॥ ४६॥

rahagranthe maved TATA... FATT | vicitrakcaṇako dehenāhataḥ śrayate dhvaniḥ || 46||

ra·hag·ran·the ma·ved TA·TA... FATT | vi·cit·rak·ca·ṇa·ko de·he·nā·ha·taḥ śra·ya·te dhva·niḥ || 46||

Divine body, radiant, divine scent, free of sickness — [thus] the yogi at ārambha.

दिव्यदेहश्च तेजसी दिव्यगन्धस्त्वरोगवान्‌ | POUT आरम्भे योगिनो भवेत्‌ ॥ Vo I

In the second, making the pot, the wind goes to the middle; firm in posture the yogi becomes, equal in radiance to knowledge.

दितीयायां धटीकङरत्य वायुभेवति मध्यग; | दृढासनो भवयोगी ज्ञानादेव समप्रभः ॥ ४८ ॥

ditīyāyāṃ dhaṭīkaṅaratya vāyubhevati madhyaga; | dṛḍhāsano bhavayogī jñānādeva samaprabhaḥ || 48 ||

Then by piercing the Viṣṇu-knot, sign of highest bliss; in the void a drum-sound arises.

विष्णुगरन्थस्तथा वेधात्‌ परमानन्दश्रूचकः | अतिश्ये Baca भेरीशब्दस्तथा भवेत्‌ ॥ ४९।।

viṣṇugaranthastathā vedhāt paramānandaśrūcakaḥ | atiśye Baca bherīśabdastathā bhavet || 49||

In the third, then piercing, the sky's great drum-sound; then the great void comes, resting on all the joints. [?]

तीयायां ततो भित्वा arnt ( विहायो ) मदटध्वनिः | HEMT तदा जातं स्वंसन्धि( सद्वि ) समाश्रयम्‌ ॥ ५० ॥

tīyāyāṃ tato bhitvā arnt ( vihāyo ) madaṭadhvaniḥ | HEMT tadā jātaṃ svaṃsandhi( sadvi ) samāśrayam || 50 ||

tī·yā·yāṃ ta·to bhit·vā arnt ( vi·hā·yo ) ma·da·ṭadh·va·niḥ | HEMT ta·dā jā·taṃ svaṃ·san·dhi( sad·vi ) sa·māś·ra·yam || 50 ||

Then, conquering mind-bliss, the innate bliss arises, free of fault, death, old age, sorrow, hunger, sleep and poison.

चित्तानन्दं ततो जित्वा सहजानन्दसम्भवः । दोषमृत्यु-नरा-दःख-श्चधा-निद्राविषनितः ॥ ५१ ॥

cittānandaṃ tato jitvā sahajānandasambhavaḥ | doṣamṛtyu-narā-daḥkha-ścadhā-nidrāviṣanitaḥ || 51 ||

Then piercing Rudra's knot, the wind gone to the lord's seat; in niṣpatti a flute-sound, tinkling like a lute.

Rater ततो भित्वा यत्वपीटगतोऽनिसः | निष्पत्तौ वेणवदशब्दः क्वणन्वीत ( न्निव ) क्वणो WAU ५२॥।

Then the mind is made one, called rāja-yoga; creator and destroyer, the yogi becomes lord-like.

एकीभूतं तदा चित्तं राजयोगामिधानकम्‌ सृषटिसंहारकतीऽसो योगीश्वरयमोभवेत्‌ | ५२॥

No nāda, no bindu, no mind nor no-mind; nothing hard to pass by practice — this is called rāja-yoga.

न नादो न च बिन्दुश्च न चेतो नाप्यचेतनः | नाभ्यासदुस्तरं किञ्चित्‌ राजयोगो निगद्यते ॥ ५४॥।

na nādo na ca binduśca na ceto nāpyacetanaḥ | nābhyāsadustaraṃ kiñcit rājayogo nigadyate || 54|||

Where moving and unmoving dissolve, that is called the liṅga; that śakti of unthinkable deep form, lighting the three worlds; that mind void of dealing with all objects; that seat of meditation beyond the veil of boundless time, with ease.

The body is made of five elements, filled with five circles: earth is known by hardness, water by fluid form,

पश्चभूतात्मको देहः पश्चमण्डलपूरितः | काठिन्यात्यृथिवी ज्ञेया पानीय यददरुवाकृतिः ॥ ५६ ॥

paścabhūtātmako dehaḥ paścamaṇḍalapūritaḥ | kāṭhinyātyṛthivī jñeyā pānīya yadadaruvākṛtiḥ || 56 ||

fire by kindling, wind by touch, and all in space as awareness — this the yoga-seeker must know.

दीपनं तु भवेततेजः स्पत वायोस्तथा भवेत्‌ । आकाशे चेतनं सर्वं ज्ञातव्य योगमिच्छता ॥ ५७॥

dīpanaṃ tu bhavetatejaḥ spata vāyostathā bhavet | ākāśe cetanaṃ sarvaṃ jñātavya yogamicchatā || 57||

Twenty-one thousand and six hundred, day and night, the wind goes out from its circle. When the earth-circle wanes, [decay] comes to the embodied; when water wanes, hair whitens like grass.

ध्टच्छतान्यधिकान्यत्र सहस्ाण्येकविरंतिः | अहोरात्रं FST वायुमण्डलरेचनात्‌ ॥ ५८ It तत्यृथ्वीमण्डले क्षीणे बिरायाति देहिनाम्‌ | तोये क्षीणे तृणानीव चिकुरः पाण्डुराः क्रमात्‌ ॥ ५९ ॥

dhṭac·cha·tān·ya·dhi·kān·yat·ra sa·ha·sāṇ·ye·ka·vi·raṃ·tiḥ | a·ho·rāt·raṃ FST vā·yu·maṇ·ḍa·la·re·ca·nāt || 58 It tat·yṛth·vī·maṇ·ḍa·le kṣī·ṇe bi·rā·yā·ti de·hi·nām | to·ye kṣī·ṇe tṛ·ṇā·nī·va ci·ku·raḥ pāṇ·ḍu·rāḥ kra·māt || 59 ||

When fire wanes, hunger and lustre go; when wind slackens, trembling — he lives by mere daring.

तेजःश्षीणे श्वुधाकान्तिनैस्यते मारते शथे | वेपथुश्च WAS साहसेनेव जीवति ॥ ६० ॥

tejaḥśṣīṇe śvudhākāntinaisyate mārate śathe | vepathuśca WAS sāhaseneva jīvati || 60 ||

So death comes from the waning of the elements, life from holding them; … one lives a hundred years; else death cannot be.

इत्थं भूतक्षयान्मृत्युजीवितं भूतधारणात्‌ । प... ओदर्षशते रश्येन्नान्यथा मरणं भवेत्‌ ॥ ६१ I

By practising through the eight watches he swallows all breaths; filled with sixteen digits, the moon stands from inhalation.

यामाष्टकटृताभ्यासात्सवोज्खवासान्‌ ग्रसत्यसो । स षोडशकरोपेतश्यशी तिष्ठति पूरकान्‌ ( त्‌ ) ॥ ६२ ॥

When the mind is waveless and still, the wind goes to the middle; the sun goes to the upper place, with bindu it goes to …

निस्तरङ्ग स्थिरे चित्ते वायुभेवति मध्यगः | रविरूर्ध्वपदं याति विन्दुना याति व्यताम्‌ ॥ ६२ ॥

nistaraṅga sthire citte vāyubhevati madhyagaḥ | ravirūrdhvapadaṃ yāti vindunā yāti vyatām || 62 ||

The yogi, filled with bliss, becomes like Śiva; then all lordly qualities are seen within ten months.

आनन्दपूरितो योभी जायते शिवसननिभः | तदेश्वरगुणास्सरवे श्यन्ते दश्षमासतः । ६४ ॥

ānandapūrito yobhī jāyate śivasananibhaḥ | tadeśvaraguṇāssarave śyante daśṣamāsataḥ | 64 ||

Thus the perfected amarogha is revealed by Gorakṣa, made of skill in laya and the means, awakening and proof.

इत्यमरोषसंसिद्रो गोरक्षेण प्रकाशितः | लयाद्युपायकोशल्यप्रमोधप्रत्ययात्मकः । ६५५ ॥

Leaving all thought, test it for a single day; if there is no proof of it, then my word is false.

स्ैचिन्तां परित्यज्य दिनमे$ परीक्षयताम्‌ | यदि तत्प्रत्ययो नास्तितदा मे तु मृषा Ta: ॥ ६६ ॥

…rays, moon-…, lamp-flame, moon, suns: these rays [rest in] the great orb… Who does not know [it] does not find…; when sameness arises in the mind free of duality —

रुमो (?) मरीचि GNA दीपज्वालेन्दु भारराः | अमी करा महाविम्बं Healers wad | ६७ | ard यो न जानाति asad न विन्दति | समीभावे सयुत्यन्ने चित्ते देतविवर्जिते ॥ ६८ ॥

ru·mo (?) ma·rī·ci GNA dī·paj·vā·len·du bhā·ra·rāḥ | a·mī ka·rā ma·hā·vim·baṃ He·a·lers wad | 67 | ard yo na jā·nā·ti a·sad na vin·da·ti | sa·mī·bhā·ve sa·yut·yan·ne cit·te de·ta·vi·var·ji·te || 68 ||

having let go even 'I' and 'mine', he contemplates amarogha. Mind is called life, no-mind death, say the wise.

अहं ममेत्यपी्युक्तवा सोऽमरोधं विचिन्तयत्‌ । चित्तं जीवितमित्याहूरचित्तं मरणं fag: ॥ ६९ ॥

ahaṃ mametyapīyuktavā so'marodhaṃ vicintayat | cittaṃ jīvitamityāhūracittaṃ maraṇaṃ fag: || 69 ||

a·haṃ ma·met·ya·pī·yuk·ta·vā so'ma·ro·dhaṃ vi·cin·ta·yat | cit·taṃ jī·vi·ta·mit·yā·hū·ra·cit·taṃ ma·ra·ṇaṃ fag: || 69 ||

When mind and no-mind become one, that is called liberation-in-life here; where the state of sameness is, it cannot be spoken.

चित्ताचित्ते समीभूते जीवन्पुक्तिरिहोच्यते | यत्र खमभावसद्धावो भाषितं नेव शक्यते । ७० ॥

cittācitte samībhūte jīvanpuktirihocyate | yatra khamabhāvasaddhāvo bhāṣitaṃ neva śakyate | 70 ||

cit·tā·cit·te sa·mī·bhū·te jī·van·puk·ti·ri·hoc·ya·te | yat·ra kha·ma·bhā·va·sad·dhā·vo bhā·ṣi·taṃ ne·va śak·ya·te | 70 ||

Then no one lives, and no one will die; reaching the rāja-yoga state, which brings all beings under sway,

न जीवति ततः कोऽपि न च कोऽपि मरिष्यति | राजयोगं पदं प्राप्य सवेसत्ववशाङ्करम्‌ ॥ ७१ ॥

na jīvati tataḥ ko'pi na ca ko'pi mariṣyati | rājayogaṃ padaṃ prāpya savesatvavaśāṅkaram || 71 ||

na jī·va·ti ta·taḥ ko'pi na ca ko'pi ma·riṣ·ya·ti | rā·ja·yo·gaṃ pa·daṃ prāp·ya sa·ve·sat·va·va·śāṅ·ka·ram || 71 ||

all … moves as it pleases. Naked one, in caves; one in divine clothes, another in a loincloth; one with divine women, yet another a celibate somewhere; one living on alms, another finding a seat of pleasures — unbound in conduct, the king of yogis removes all affliction.

By glorious Gorakṣanātha, ever abiding in amarogha, these [verses] are spoken for rāja-yoga alone.
