Nirvikalpa mind

Sri Sadgurubhyoh Namah

VBT 123 :
Kinchijjnairyaa smritaa shuddhih saa shuddhih shambhu darshane,
na shuchir hyashuchis tasmaan nirvikalpah sukhee bhavet

Translation :
What is considered as pure by people of little knowledge is not considered pure or impure by one who has experienced Shambhu. Nirvikalpa is the real purification, by which one becomes happy.

Commentary :
People of little understanding consider social and moral values as pure, but those who have experienced Shambhu, do not consider those values as neither pure nor impure. Vikalpa means duality in thoughts. Nirvikalpa means mind without duality. Those who have tasted the nirvikalpa state of mind, know that state to be called pure state. Purity of mind which is without vikalpas is the purity and through that happiness is attained.
