Section 2 79
"तत्त्वमसि" पर ध्यान का फल | The fruit of meditating on "Tat Tvam Asi"
Summary (in English)
These verses elucidate the profound outcomes of meditating upon the Mahāvākya "Tat Tvam Asi" (That Thou Art). Sloka 264 emphasizes the necessity of contemplating this teaching with solid reasoning (prathita-yukti) and clarity of intellect (dhī) to arrive at a doubt-free understanding of truth (tattva-nigama). Sloka 265 highlights the realisation of one's self as mere consciousness (saṁbodhamātra) and remaining established in this nature, leading to the dissolution of the universe into Brahman. Sloka 266 further explores the concept of attaining liberation (mokṣa) by residing in the 'cave of intellect' (buddhau guhā) as opposed to being confined within the 'cave of the body'. Collectively, these slokas communicate the realization and internalization of the non-dual essence of reality as residing within one’s own true consciousness.
सारांश
ये श्लोक "तत्त्वमसि" महावाक्य पर ध्यान के परिणाम को बताते हैं। श्लोक २६४ इस शिक्षा पर अच्छी प्रकार की तर्कशक्ति (प्रथितयुक्ति) से चिंतन की आवश्यकता पर जोर देता है ताकि सत्य की बिना संदेह की समझ प्राप्त हो सके (तत्वनिगम)। श्लोक २६५ चैतन्य मात्र के रूप में अपने स्व को समझने और उसमें स्थित होने की ओर इंगित करता है जिससे संसार की ब्रह्म में लय होती है। श्लोक २६६ बुद्धि के गुहा (अंतःकरण) में रहकर, शरीर गुहा की सीमाओं को छोड़ देने का महत्व बताता है। संपूर्ण श्लोक मिलकर, वास्तविकता के अद्वैत स्वरूप के आत्मज्ञान की शिक्षा देते हैं और इसे अपने चैतन्य में स्थापित होने को कहते हैं।

Translation: One should contemplate this stated meaning within oneself using well-established reasoning; then, being free of doubts, realization of the truth will ensue.
Sloka 265
संबोधमात्रं परिशुद्धतत्त्वं विज्ञाय सङ्घे नृपवच्च सैन्ये । तदाश्रयः स्वात्मनि सर्वदा स्थितो विलापय ब्रह्मणि विश्वजातम् ॥ २६५ ॥

Sloka 266
बुद्धौ गुहायां सदसद्विलक्षणं ब्रह्मास्ति सत्यं परमद्वितीयम् । तदात्मना योऽत्र वसेद्गुहायां पुनर्न तस्याङ्गगुहाप्रवेशः ॥ २६६ ॥
Translation: In the cave of the intellect exists the distinct Brahman, the ultimate non-dual truth. Those who dwell in this cave with the self, do not again enter the bodily cave.
