Points touched upon
- Verse 4: self-investigation as the easiest of all paths, because it is not doing but just being.
- Ego as the root of the bonds of karma and the devastation of birth, and why only knowing ourself can cut it.
- Just being, without the least action of mind, speech or body, as manonasa (annihilation of mind), not manolaya (temporary dissolution).
- Holding on to self-attentiveness so firmly that vishaya-vasanas, the seeds of karma, are wiped out along with ego.
- The light of oneself shining in the heart as ‘I am I’: the eternal experience, free of fear, an ocean of happiness.
