PART TWO

From the Srimad Bhagavatam and Rama Gita

The following stanzas from the Srimad Bhagavatam and
Rama Gita were rendered into Tamil verses by Sri Bhagavan.

Whether the impermanent body is at rest or moves about,
or whether by reason of prarabdha it clings to him or falls
away from him, the Self-realised siddha ^[?]is not aware of it,
even as the drunken man blinded by intoxication is unaware
whether his clothes are on his body or not.

--Srimad Bhagavatam
The conjuror deludes the world, while remaining
undeluded himself. But the siddha ^[?]deludes himself first,
and then deludes others. How wonderful this is!

-- Rama Gita
