Verses 34-37

Several realizations later
The real remains one,
Like water from
The foam, waves after waves.
You are, so you are able to see
Even when to see,
there is nothing.
Just being there,
just seeing and
Just experiencing the experience
links you
unbroken
To the antiquity of
This knowledge
Let us
Both listen
to that voice.

Let us just immerse ourselves in the being and hear what there is to hear. Otherwise, this dialogue of me and mine with you and yours would go on pointlessly.

Verses 30-33

You can’t put it in words
Nor know it;
You can be it
While it is there.
It’s like not being
Able to see your
Own wounded pupil
in the eye.
No use trying to
Gather its knowledge.
There is nothing to
Not know and what is there
To know?
So let’s converse
In silence
Such that all there is
Gets spoken
Without words.

What do you want to know from me? What do you want to tell me? You know it very well what there is to know and not know, dear Changdeva.
