Vijñāna Bhairava (विज्ञान भैरव)
अहं ममेदमित्यादि प्रतिपत्तिप्रसङ्गतः ।
निराधारे मनो याति तद्ध्यानप्रेरणाच् छमी ahaṃ mamedam ityādi pratipattiprasaṅgataḥ |
nirādhāre mano yāti taddhyānapreraṇāc chamī
The line
From the occasion of the notions beginning with I and this is mine, the mind goes to the supportless. From the impulse of that meditation, one becomes peaceful.
नेपालीमा
म र यो मेरो जस्ता प्रतीति उठ्दा मन निराधारमा जान्छ। त्यो ध्यानको प्रेरणाले शान्त हुन्छ।
Where it sits
The notions are the occasion, not an enemy to be argued down. The mind's going to the supportless is what the verse reports.
Split: aham (अहम्) + mama (मम) + idam (इदम्) + ityādi (इत्यादि) + pratipattiprasaṅgataḥ (प्रतिपत्तिप्रसङ्गतः) + nirādhāre (निराधारे) + manaḥ (मनः) + yāti (याति) + taddhyānapreraṇāt (तद्ध्यानप्रेरणात्) + śamī (शमी)
