Chapter-10
The Divine Manifestation

3. He who knows Me as the unborn, beginningless, Supreme Lord of the world, he is undeluded among the mortals and is liberated from all sins. And who, in this frame of mind, sees My beginningless nature in the clear light of self-knowledge, he knows that I am the great Lord of all beings, beyond causation (71-75).

Like a philosopher’s stone among stones, nectar among liquids, he is a part of My Divine essence amongst all mortals. He is the embodiment of knowledge, moving about and talking. His limbs are verily the blossoms of happiness and his assumption of a human body is mere delusion. Just as a diamond found in camphor does not dissolve in water, although he moves about among men like an ignorant person, he is not tainted by maya and gets rid of all his sins. Just as a serpent flees from a burning sandalwood tree, so desires leave a person who knows Me (76-80).

If the thought has occurred to you, how to know what I am and what the modes of My being are, I shall tell them to you, listen. My manifestations are spread in different beings in this universe, taking form according to their dispositions.
