Once he knows (惫颈箩帽补鈥�vi箩帽腻ya 艣akuna峁�) the auspicious words and day, then he goes forth in three directions [north, northeast, and west], conferring siddhi to all鈥�.

He without sorrow attained a pitiable plight. When lord 艢iva stood thus unable to say anything in reply and was seen so by the gods, sages, Gandharvas, Yak峁s, and Siddhas, O N膩rada, you did something laughable. Urged by 艢iva mentally O N膩rada, you, the knower of Brahman (brahma-惫颈箩帽补) with mind fixed in 艢iva, played on your V墨峁嚹�. [...]鈥�.

Truly, when one does not know oneself, one takes pleasure in the objects of mistaken perception, just as greed arises for the mistaken silver in one who does not know mother of pearl for what it is. All this wells up like waves in the sea. Recognizing, 鈥業 am That鈥�, why run around like someone in need? [...]鈥�
Vedanta (啶掂啶︵ぞ啶ㄠ啶�, ved膩nta) refers to a school of orthodox Hindu philosophy (astika), drawing its subject-matter from the Upanishads.
