The Avadhoota Gita-27
5. It has not yet happened that I, the ignorant one - have attained to knowledge, nor has it happened that I have become of the nature of Knowledge. And how can I say that I have both ignorance and knowledge? I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
6. It (The Self) does not appear to me as virtuous or sinful as bound or liberated, nor does it appear to me - as united or separated. I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
7. I never have the high, low, or middle state. I have no friend nor foe. How shall I speak of good and evil? I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
8. I am not the worshipper or of the form of the worshipped. I have neither instruction nor practice. How shall I speak of myself - who am of the nature of Consciousness? I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
9. There is nothing here which pervades or is pervaded. There is no abode nor is there the abodeless. How shall I speak of void and non-void? I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
10. There is no one to understand and nothing indeed, to be understood. I have no cause and no effect. How shall I say that I am conceivable or inconceivable? I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
11. There is nothing dividing, nothing to be divided. I have nothing to know with and nothing to be known. How shall I then speak of coming and going? I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
12. I have no body or bodilessness - nor have I intelligence, mind or senses. How shall I speak of attachment and detachment? I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
13. The Self is not separate or high - and it has not disappeared even to the extent of allusion. Friend, how can I speak of it as identical or different? I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
14. Neither have I conquered the senses - nor have i not conquered them. Self-restraint or discipline never occurred to me. Friend how can I speak of victory and defeat? I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
15. Never have I form or absence of form, Never any beginning, middle, or end. Friend how can I speak of strength and weakness? I am free from disease - my form has been extinguished.
