The world, like a dream full of attachments and aversions seems real until the awakening.

The treasure I have found cannot be described in words, the mind cannot conceive of it.

Like the appearance of silver in mother of pearl, the world seems real until the Self, the underlying reality, is realized.

What is enquiry into the Truth? It is the firm conviction that the Self is real, and all, other than That, is unreal.

But the jiva [living being] is endowed with ego and his knowledge is limited, whereas Ishwar is without ego and is omniscient.

Thus one should know oneself to be of the nature of Existence-Consciousness-Bliss[Sat-Chit-Ananda].

There is sorrow in finitude. The Self is beyond time, space and objects. It is infinite and hence of the nature of absolute happiness.
