"The first thought is "I."
Then arises "my," which is ego,
and then comes all manifestation.
Time, mind, manifestations is projected out of "I"
which is itself the projection required to manifest the play.
Undress yourself of these things and find where "I" rises from.
You are Shiva if you do not project "I,"
and your Shakti-is the projection by which to play,
Consciousness is the source of this play,
of the mind, and That is all.

The ocean cannot stay alone
and so the notion of wave is created.
When waves rise ocean loses nothing
and when waves fall ocean gains nothing.
Samsara, the illusion, maya, the play,
are the waves on the ocean of nirvana.
Waves are not separate from the ocean,
rays are not separate from the sun,
You are not separate from
Existence-Consciousness-Bliss."
