ASHTAVAKRA SAMHITA
12. What is activity or inactivity,
liberation or bondage, to me who am ever
immutable and indivisible and established
in Self?
[Immutable-Kutastha means 'remaining like a
heap (Kuta)'; hence, immutable and eternal.
Or. Kuta means a thing which is good to all
appearance but evil within. Accordingly it refers to
the seed of Samsâra-including Avidyâ and other
things, which is full of evil within, designated by
various terms such as Mâyâ etc. Kutastha, therefore,
means "That which is seated in Mâyâ as its locus.']
क्वोपदेशः क्क वा शास्त्रं क्व शिष्यः क्व च वा गुरुः ।
क चास्ति पुरुषार्थो वा निरुपाधेः शिवस्य मे ॥ १३ ॥

for me ч: instruction

life (expletive) where fe is a or ?
13. What is instruction or scriptural
injunction, what is disciple or preceptor,
what is summum bonum of life, to me
who am absolute good and free from
limitation?
