ATMABODHA | VERSE 05 | SRI ADI SANKARACARYA 1. The jiva is mixed up with ignorance . By constant practice of knowledge the jiva becomes pure , because knowledge disappears ( along with ignorance ) , as the cleansing nut with the impurities in the water . But here is the world , how can the Self alone be real and non-dual? ~ RM 2. Through repeated practice , Knowledge purifies the embodied soul stained by ignorance, and then itself disappears , as the powder of the kataka-nut disappears after it has cleansed muddy water . 3. Constant practice of knowledge purifies the Self ( Jivatman ) , stained by ignorance and then disappears itself — as the powder of the Kataka-nut settles down after it has cleansed the muddy water .
