निर्विकल्पोऽस्मि चिद्दीपो निरहंकारवासनः ।
त्वयाहंकारबीजेन न संबद्धोऽस्म्यसन्मय ॥ ३१ ॥

nirvikalpo'smi ciddīpo nirahaṃkāravāsanaḥ |
tvayāhaṃkārabījena na saṃbaddho'smyasanmaya || 31 ||

I find myself to be the inextinguishable lamp of intellect, and without my egoism or any desire in myself; and have no relation with the false ignorance, which is the root of egoism.
