mahA vAkya vichAram TB-65

एवं च वेदान्तवाक्यैः सद्गुरूपदेशेन च सर्वेष्वपि भूतेषु येषां
ब्रह्मबुद्धिरुत्पन्ना ते जीवन्मुक्ताः इत्यर्थः |TB-65|

Evam cha vEdAnta vAkyai: sadguru upahEshEna cha sarvEShu api bhUtEShu yEShAm bramha buddhi utpannA tE jIvanmuktA: iti artha: [TB-65|



Evam cha = in this mannet. vEdAnta vAkyai: = by mahA vAkyas such as "tat tvam asi" and sadguru upahEshEna cha = by the teaching of any good guru also sarvEShu api = in the entire creation bhUtEShu = of sentient and insentient objects yEShAm = for whom bramha buddhi = an awareness that "hmm.. all this is verily bramhan" utpannA = arises tE = such people iti artha: = are to be understood as jIvanmuktA: = jIvan muktAs.. or gnyAnis who are liberated while being alive..

You see, now our guru does not even waste a minute with the shiShya.. he has shown the creation of the jeeva.. universe, and god.. and has identified that they are all non-separate from bramhan, teh uncaused cause of ALL effects..!

He dvelves inot expalining who is that liberated guy..

In the opening statement guru made a mahApratignyA.. that he is unfolding tatvabodha for the sake of a uttama adhikAri who si desirous of liberation.

Now he explains what happens to the guy who understands "I am bramhan".. At this point the rest of tatvabodha is really considered the phalam of studying this moksha shAstram..

It has been shown so far the the jeeva piNDam is not separate from bramha aNDam.. so everythign here is bramhan.. and ANY student who understands this and gets an appreciation in his buddhi that there is NOTHING other than bramhan, he is liberated at that instant.. he never says.."swamiji, I know I am brmahan, but..| Get the drift?

Such a person already has the four fold qualification.. he has shradhA in the teaching of upanishats and guru.. his Qs have been so far systematicall answered.

This awareness is called akhaNDa AkAra vRtti, a cognition that I am everythign and everything is myself.. and actually, if imbibed perfectly, this ALSO vanishes
