So what?

So what if the universe evolves, and undergoes the terrifying pralaya,
I am the truth,I am the unchanged, I am the one in whom this plays,
So what if worlds explode and the stars and cosmos blazes with great force,
I am the truth of this divine play, I am the self, I am the base,
So what if in ignorance the killer kills, and the victim is killed,
I am the truth of the killer and killed, i am neither the killer, nor am I killed,
So what if the young man, in stupified vigor, loses his mind in the charms of a damsel,
I am the witness, who graces his stupor, and his fleeting elation, followed by deep regret ,
So what if the householder struggles and sweats with no relief in sight,
I am the blessed reality, the non doer, I neither act, nor am acted upon,
So what if the old man , undegoes disease or travails, or pains or nears death,
Am I not the deathless one, that is neither born , nor dies,
So what if they undertake my last rites, praying for a good gati , for my jivatma,
I am the truth of their ignorance, which makes them not know that i am the paramatma,
I neither travel, nor do I arise, nor do I enter, I am unchanged.
Who said so that all this exists, Who is saying all this shall cease?
He who knows, he need not say, he who says, he need not know,
The earth , the moon, the stars, the sun, the planets, the birds and the seas,
These are emanations from my divine consciousnes, I am the subtratum, I am their soul.
