The Wise-Man's characteristics, his teaching, his self-recognition

ॐ गं ॐ
निराशता निर्भयता नित्यता समता ज्ञता।
निरीहता निष्क्रियता सौम्यता निर्विकल्पता।।
धृतिर्मैत्री मतिस्तुष्टिः मृदुता मृदुभाषिता ।
हेयोपादेयनिर्मुक्ते ज्ञे तिष्ठन्त्यपवासनम्।।

Cessation of fears, freedom from fear, eternality, inward equanimity, self-recognition,  cessation of emotional dependence, (knowledge of self being) actionlessness, gentleness, doubt-freeness, resoluteness, genuine friendship with one and all,  contentment of heart, softness, soft-spokenness, freedom from withdrawing (from what is unpleasant) and grasping it chasing (what is pleasant)- these are the qualities that dwell in a knower of truth.

मनसैव मनश्छित्त्वा कुठारेणेव पादपम्।
पदमं पावनमासाद्य सद्य एव स्थिरो भव।।
Cut asunder the mind (see it's mithyatvam) using mind itself,as one would a tree with an axe. And immediately recognizing the immaculate abode within, remain unshakeable always.

That, effortless, immediate, direct,  ever-present, conscious presence, the underlying reality of the experiencer-experience- experienced am I.

Indeed, I am That, effortless, immediate, direct, independent, limitless, consciousness, the underlying reality, whose ever-presence, manifests as though, the experiencer-the experience-the experienced, illumining and enlivening them.

I am indeed, that absolute non-dual reality, the absolute Self, of the nature of consciousness.

That ever-present limitless existence-consciousness principle, the underlying reality of the universe am I.

That, effortless, immediate, direct,  ever-present, conscious presence, the underlying reality of the experiencer-experience- experienced am I.

Indeed, I am That, effortless, immediate, direct, independent, limitless, consciousness, the underlying reality, whose ever-presence, manifests as though, the experiencer-the experience-the experienced, illumining and enlivening them.
