And that is proclaimed as the immortal nectar; it is declared to be attainable through knowledge.
There is no higher goal of knowledge and discernment than that. (51)
Having understood this thus, one should abandon delusion born from the transformation of the three qualities.
Of that indivisible Self, the twenty-sixth [principle], the Lord, (52)
who else adept in yoga would make a division from the Blessed Lord?
One should not imagine diversity in that spotless, indeterminate master. (53)
Free from delusion, with associations abandoned, devoid of actions and duties,
those who observe the vow of the Lord enter into that great Lord. (54)
Thus this Māheśvara yoga has been declared to you, Vyāsa,
which is the correct union with the Lord, such as is found nowhere else. (55)
Whatever doubt you have, O brahmin, and whatever you consider should be asked,
ask that at once, O holy one; I have nothing that cannot be told to you. (56)
Thus ends the one hundred and eighty-first chapter in the Skandapurāṇa, in the description of Pāśupata yoga, on the rules of yoga.
