तस्माच्चिदाकाशमनादिमध्यमखण्डितं सौम्यमिदं समस्तम् ।
निर्वाणमस्तंगतजातिबन्धो यथास्थितं तिष्ठ निरामयात्मा ॥ ८ ॥

tasmāccidākāśamanādimadhyamakhaṇḍitaṃ saumyamidaṃ samastam |
nirvāṇamastaṃgatajātibandho yathāsthitaṃ tiṣṭha nirāmayātmā || 8 ||

Know therefore, my good friend, thy intellectual sphere to be boundless, and without its beginning or end; and being absorbed in the meditation of thy personal extinction, do thou remain as quiet as thou art sitting, relying in thy unperturbed and imperishable soul.
