Ashtavakra said:
1. Thou has no association with anything. Pure art thou. What is there to renounce? Destroy the identity with the body and the mind, and enter into the state of noumenon.
2. As bubbles arise in the ocean, so does the Universe arise in the Self. Thus knowing the Self to be all, enter into the state of the noumenon.
3. Though the Universe is perceptible by the senses, yet it has no factual existence, like the snake in the rope. Therefore, enter into the state of the noumenon.
4. Be equable in pleasure and in pain, in hope and in despair, in life and in death. Thus enter into the state of the noumenon.
