The Secret of Tripura

But that which Samvarta spoke of long ago is not known to me.
What I asked my Guru in the context of creation original: "srishtiprasangena"— 29
At that time, my Guru described the forest of Kataka a symbolic or specific location mentioned in the text,
But he did not speak of the unmanifested; that remains thus for me. 30
I do not know the path of the world even in the slightest.
Why has this great display of the world arisen? 31
Or where does it go, and where does it find its foundation?
I see everything everywhere as unstable. 32
Why is worldly activity vyavahara worldly behavior/action considered stable?
I see the world’s activity as strange and lacking in reflection original: "avimarshinim". 33
Ah, just as one blind man follows another and stumbles,
So is the behavior of the world that I have observed in everyone. 34
My own actions should serve as a demonstration here.
Truly, what happened in my childhood, I have not reflected upon. 35
In my youth it was one way, and in my prime it was otherwise.
Now, my activities are entirely different. 36

[Commentary]
I forgot to ask. 28. "By me, in the context of creation" and so on should be understood from the first section. 29. Why did he not speak then? He says: "because of the unmanifested" (aprakritatah). It remains unknown. 30. 31. Unstable: changing at every moment. 32. Regarding the instability of the object, how can there be activity towards that object? He is amazed, saying "behavior," thinking: "This village was acquired for the sake of my son, so it becomes stable-like." "Lacking in reflection" means lacking in inquiry. 33. He says "Ah," meaning that behavior is merely a tradition of the blind. 34. Here, the example is one's own action, he says "demonstration." 35. One's own deed is behavior. He says that, "truly," "to me," meaning by me. 36.
