ॐ 

असतो मा सद्गमय। 

तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय। 

मृत्योर्मा अमृतं गमय।

ॐ शांतिः शांतिः शांतिः

नभःस्पृशं दीप्तमनेकवर्णं

व्यात्ताननं दीप्तविशालनेत्रम् ।

दृष्ट्वा हि त्वां प्रव्यथितान्तरात्मा

धृतिं न विन्दामि शमं च विष्णो ॥ 11.24 ॥

“O Vishnu! Seeing You—touching the sky, blazing, of many colours, with wide-open mouths and vast, radiant eyes—my very inner being is shaken. I find neither steadiness (धृति) nor peace (शम).”

Overwhelming Reality: The Viśvarūpa is not a gentle, comforting vision; it is the raw, total Reality—vast, luminous, and terrifying in its infinity.

Ego’s Collapse: Faced with the Infinite, the finite mind and ego lose balance. Arjuna’s loss of dhṛti (inner composure) and śama (tranquillity) shows the incapacity of the limited self to contain the Absolute.

Bhakti with Awe: True devotion is not only sweetness; it includes bhaya-bhakti—reverent awe before the Lord’s immeasurable power.

Until the ego dissolves, peace is impossible in the presence of the Absolute. One must move from fear to surrender, from form to formless understanding.

निद्राकल्पितदेशकालविषयज्ञात्रादि सर्वं यथा

मिथ्या तद्वदिहापि जाग्रति जगत्स्वाज्ञानकार्यत्वतः ।

यस्मादेवमिदं शरीरकरणप्राणाहमाद्यप्यसत्

तस्मात्तत्त्वमसि प्रशान्तममलं ब्रह्माद्वयं यत्परम् ॥ २५२ ॥

Just as, in dream, space, time, objects, the knower and the knowing—all are imagined and therefore unreal,so too, in the waking state, this world is unreal, being the product of one’s own ignorance.Hence, this body, senses, prāṇa, ego, and the rest are also unreal.

Therefore, Thou art That—the supreme, tranquil, pure, non-dual Brahman.

Dream–Waking Parallel: Waking experience is placed on the same footing as dream—both are appearances born of ignorance (अज्ञान).

Negation of the Not-Self: Body, instruments, prāṇa, and ego are systematically dismissed as asat (not ultimately real).

Ground of Reality: What remains is Brahman—praśānta (perfectly tranquil), amala (stainless), advaya (non-dual).

Mahāvākya Fulfilment: The verse culminates in तत्त्वमसि—not as a concept, but as a recognition once superimposition is negated.

Peace is not produced; it is revealed when the imagined structures of knower–known collapse.

HAVE A BRIGHT AND CHEERFUL DAY
