श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
जगदाकाशमेवेदं यथा हि व्योम्नि मौक्तिकम् ।
विमले भाति स्वात्मैव जगच्चिद्गगनं यथा ॥ १ ॥
śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca ,
jagadākāśamevedaṃ yathā hi vyomni mauktikam ,
vimale bhāti svātmaiva jagaccidgaganaṃ yathā 1
1. śrīvasiṣṭhaḥ uvāca.
jagat ākāśam eva idam yathā hi vyomni mauktikam vimale bhāti svātmā eva jagat citgaganam yathā
1. śrīvasiṣṭhaḥ uvāca: idam jagat ākāśam eva (asti).
yathā hi vimale vyomni mauktikam bhāti,
(tathā eva) svātmā eva (bhāti),
yathā jagat citgaganam.
1. Śrī Vasiṣṭha said: This entire world (jagat) is indeed nothing but space (ākāśa), just as a pearl (mauktika) shines spotlessly in the pure sky (vyoman). Similarly, the world is merely the consciousness-space (cit-gagana), and it is the supreme Self (ātman) alone that shines.
1. וַסִישְׁטְהָ (החכם הרוחני) אמר: עולם זה אינו אלא מרחב, כמו אשליה של פנינה בשמיים. בתוך התודעה הזכה, העצמי בלבד מקרין כעולם, כשם שחלל מופיע בתוך חלל.

2. trijagat śālabhañjikā anutkīrṇaiḥ iva bhāti sā
citstambhena eva utkīrṇā atra ca utkartā na vidyate
2. The sculpture (śālabhañjikā) of the three worlds shines forth as if by means of uncarved qualities. Yet, it is indeed carved out by the pillar of consciousness (cit) itself, and no carver exists here.
2. שלושת העולמות נראים כפסל החקוק על עמוד התודעה, אך הפסל אינו חקוק באמת, ואין כאן שום פסל שחיטב אותו.

3. samudre antaḥ jalaspandāḥ svabhāvāt acyutāḥ api
vīcīvegāḥ iva bhavanti tathā pare dṛśyavidaḥ (bhavanti)
3. Just as the movements of water (jalaspanda) within the ocean, though intrinsically unwavering (acyuta) by their own nature (svabhāva), manifest as surging waves; similarly, those who understand the visible (dṛśyavid) also manifest.
3. כפי שתנודות המים באוקיינוס אינן חדלות מלהיות מים אך נראות כגלים גועשים, כך בעיני היודעים את האמת, העולם הנראה נחווה כשינוי מבלי לסטות מהמוחלט.

4. jālāntargatasūryābhā jālākārarajāṃsi
api (bhavanti) yathā acalāḥ aṇum
prati (sthūlāḥ bhavanti) tathā
jagadbhānam prati sthūlāni (bhavanti)
4. Like the sun's light passing through a lattice (jāla), and also like the net-shaped dust particles [illuminated by it], the manifestation of the world (jagadbhāna) is considered gross (sthūla) relative to an atom (aṇu), just as mountains (acala) are [gross] relative to an atom.
4. גרגירי האבק הנראים בקרן שמש הבוקעת מבעד לצוהר נראים גסים לעומת האור, אך עצומים כמו הרים לעומת אטום זעיר. כך היא גם הופעת העולם.

जगद्भानं न भातीदं ब्रह्मणो व्यतिरेकतः ।
जालसूर्यांशुजालं तु व्यतिरेकानुभूतिदम् ॥ ५ ॥
jagadbhānaṃ na bhātīdaṃ brahmaṇo vyatirekataḥ ,

5. jagadbhānam na bhāti idam brahmaṇaḥ vyatirekataḥ
jālasūryāṃśujālam tu vyatirekānubhūtidam
5. idam jagadbhānam brahmaṇaḥ vyatirekataḥ na bhāti
tu jālasūryāṃśujālam vyatirekānubhūtidam (bhavati)
5. This manifestation of the world (jagadbhāna) does not shine forth as separate from Brahman. However, the network of sunbeams from a lattice (jālasūryāṃśujāla) does give the experience of distinction (vyatireka).
5. הופעתו של עולם זה אינה נפרדת מן הַבְּרַהְמַן (המציאות הקוסמית). רק כמו קרני שמש הבוקעות מבעד לסבכה, היא מעניקה תחושה מוטעית של נפרדות.

6. imāni anubhūtāni vyomarūpiṇi pṛthvyādīni
jaganti api svapnasaṅkalpayoḥ iva eva na santi
6. These experienced worlds, which are of the nature of space and include elements like earth, do not actually exist, similar to how objects in dreams or mental constructs are not real.
6. אף על פי שהם נחווים, עולמות אלה המורכבים מאדמה ויסודות אחרים וטבעם כטבע החלל, אינם קיימים באמת, בדיוק כמו דברים בחלום או בדימוי מנטלי.

marunadyām jalam iva na saṃbhavati kutracit
7. asmin vijñānākāśarūpiṇi jagati piṇḍagrahaḥ
marunadyām jalam iva kutracit na saṃbhavati
7. In this world (jagat), which is essentially consciousness-space, the apprehension of concrete forms is nowhere possible, just like water in a mirage-river.
7. התפיסה של חומר מוצק בעולם זה, שטבעו הוא מרחב התודעה הטהורה, אינה אפשרית בשום מקום, ממש כמו מים בנווה מדבר מדומה.

8. asmin apiṇḍagrāhe saṅkalpanagaropame jagati
bhrāntirūpiṇī dṛśyatā marau sarit iva ābhāti
8. In this world (jagat), which is devoid of concrete forms and is comparable to a city in a mental construct, the perceived reality, being illusory (bhrānti) in nature, appears like a river in a desert.
8. בעולם זה, הנטול חומר מוצק והדומה לעיר שנבראה בדמיון, עולם התופעות הנגלה מופיע כמו נהר במדבר – כתוצר של אשליה בלבד.

9. jagatām svapnāt dṛśyā iva,
dṛśyaśrīḥ kena ca tulādeśena tulitā? kalanonmuktā vyoma jṛmbhate
9. Just as the visible objects of dreams appear to beings, by what measure or definition can the splendor of the visible (world) be truly assessed? Untouched by conceptualization, this visible glory expands as space.
9. כאשר משווים את העולמות לחיזיונות חלום ומשחררים אותם מהמשגה מנטלית, יופיו של עולם התופעות מתגלה כהתרחבות של חלל בלבד.

10. jñavijñānam varjayitvā jagatśabdārthabhājanam asti
jagatbrahmasvaśabdānām arthe bhinnatā na eva asti
10. Excluding both empirical knowledge and discriminative knowledge, the world (jagat) is merely a receptacle for words and their meanings. Indeed, in their true significance, there is no difference in meaning between the words 'world' (jagat), 'Brahman' (brahman), and 'one's own intrinsic nature' (sva-śabda).
10. אם מניחים בצד את ההבנה הרגילה של המילה עולם, אין כל הבדל משמעותי בין המושגים עולם, בְּרַהְמַן (הכוליות הקוסמית) והעצמי.

11. idam tu acetya acinmātram asti
yathā bhānoḥ bhātam nabhaḥ prati
asti tathā sūkṣmam asti yathā
saṅkalpavāridaḥ megham prati asti
11. This (world), however, is unintelligible (acetya) and merely inert (acinmātram), just as the sun's radiance appears upon the sky. Similarly, it is as subtle as a cloud born of imagination (saṃkalpavārida) in relation to a physical cloud.
11. עולם זה הוא תודעה טהורה שאינה ניתנת לתפיסה, המופיעה כמו אור השמש בשמיים. הוא מעודן בהשוואה לענן ממשִי כמו ענן שנברא בדמיון.

12. yathā svapnapuram jāgratpuravaram prati svaccham asti
tathā idam jagat sāṅkalpikajagat prati svaccham asti
12. Just as a dream city (svapnapura) is insubstantial (svaccha) in comparison to a superior waking city, so is this world (jagat) insubstantial in comparison to a conceptual world (saṃkalpikajagat).
12. כשם שעיר בחלום היא ערפילית ומעודנת בהשוואה לעיר במצב הערות, כך עולם זה הוא מעודן ומופשט בהשוואה לעולם הדמיוני.

13. tasmāt acetya citrūpam jagat kevalam vyoma eva asti
śūnyau vyomajagatśabdau cinmayau paryāyau iti viddhi
13. Therefore, this world (jagat), being unintelligible (acetya) and of the very nature of consciousness (cit-rūpa), is merely like space (vyoman). Understand that the words 'space' (vyoman) and 'world' (jagat) are synonyms (paryāya), both composed of consciousness (cinmaya).
13. לפיכך, העולם, שטבעו תודעה שאינה נתפסת, הוא חלל בלבד. דע כי המילים חלל ועולם הן מילים נרדפות לטבעה הריק של התודעה.

14. tasmat iha jagat-ādi dṛśyakam kiñcit na utpannam

14. Therefore, nothing visible like this world has ever been created here. It is nameless, unmanifest, and remains as it is, ever-present.
14. לפיכך, דבר מעולם התופעות, כגון היקום, לא נוצר מעולם. המציאות נותרת ללא שם, ללא הגשמה, כפי שהיא ממתמיד.

tat-deśasya aṇu-mātrasya ca tulāyāḥ (api) a-prapūrakam (asti)
15. The world is truly just the consciousness-space (cit-ākāśa) within the great space (mahā-ākāśa), without any walls. It does not fill even an atom's worth of that space, nor does it register on a scale.
15. היקום כולו בתוך המרחב הגדול אינו אלא צִדָאָכָאשָׁה (מרחב התודעה) ללא מחיצות, שאינו ממלא אפילו חלקיק אטום בהשוואה אליו.

16. (tat) ākāśa-rūpam eva accham piṇḍa-graha-vivarjitam vyomni
vyoma-mayam citram saṃkalpa-pura-vat sthitam (asti)
16. It is indeed of the nature of space (ākāśa), pure, and devoid of any graspable mass. It is a wondrous sky-like (vyoma-maya) phenomenon within the sky, existing like a city created by thought (saṃkalpa).
16. זך ודומה לחלל, חופשי מכל תפיסה של חומר מוצק, היקום קיים במרחב כמו ציור העשוי מרווח, כמו עיר שנבנתה במחשבה.

17. Now, listen to this narrative of the pavilion (maṇḍapa), which is an ornament to the ears. This meaning will settle in your mind without doubt.
