Ashtavakra Gita 15.14 meaning
yat tvam pashyasi tatr-aikas tvam eva pratibhasase
kim prithag bhasate svarnat katakangadanoopuram
यत्त्वं पश्यसि तत्रैकस्त्वमेव प्रतिभाससे।
किं पृथग्भासते स्वर्णात्कटकाङ्गदनूपुरम्॥
Whatever you see, it is you alone shining there. Do bracelets, armlets and anklets look different from the gold they are made of?
What it means
Different jewellery, same gold. Different people and things, same underlying life. Seeing this makes the world feel less foreign and less threatening. Look past the shapes to what they share, and differences matter less.हिंदी में अर्थ
तुम जो कुछ देखते हो, उसमें तुम ही अकेले झलकते हो। क्या कंगन, बाजूबंद और पायल सोने से अलग दिखते हैं?
गहने अलग, सोना एक। लोग और चीज़ें अलग, पर भीतर जीवन एक। यह देखने से दुनिया कम पराई और कम डरावनी लगती है।
Spoken by Ashtavakra.
