निरानन्दमहानन्दी सुखमद्वैतमक्षयम् ।
निरालोकमहालोको हा शेते सुखमात्मवान् ॥ ३१ ॥

nirālokamahāloko hā śete sukhamātmavān || 31 ||

How happily doth the self-possest man sleep in his solity, who is ever joyous without any joy or anything to enjoy; who is joyful in enjoying the everlasting felicity of unity, and who sees effulgent light of his inward spirit, without any mortal thing on the outside.
