evaṁ viparyayaṁ buddhvā
evaṁ viparyayaṁ buddhvā
nṛṇāṁ vijñābhimāninām
ātmanaś ca gatiṁ sūkṣmāṁ
sthāna-traya-vilakṣaṇām
dṛṣṭa-śrutābhir mātrābhir
nirmuktaḥ svena tejasā
jñāna-vijñāna-santṛpto
mad-bhaktaḥ puruṣo bhavet
Understanding the attainment of opposite results for persons doing karma, and understanding the subtle state of spiritual realization beyond the states of waking, sleeping and deep sleep, freeing oneself from all sense objects seen and heard, and being satisfied with scriptural knowledge and realization by one’s sādhana, one should become my devotee.
Sthāna-traya-vilakṣaṇām means the fourth state of spiritual realization. Mātrābhiḥ means “from sense objects.” Sva-tejasā means “by ones sādhana.”

etāvān eva manujair
yoga-naipuṇya-buddhibhiḥ
svārthaḥ sarvātmanā jñeyo
yat parātmaika-darśanam
Humans whose intelligence is fixed in skilful practice of yoga should understand by all efforts this goal consisting only of realization of Paramātmā.
Parātmaika-darśanam means realization of the supreme soul, Paramātmā and nothing else.
|| 6.16.64 ||
tvam etac chraddhayā rājann
apramatto vaco mama
jñāna-vijñāna-sampanno
dhārayann āśu sidhyasi
O King! Accepting my words with faith, being attentive, and being endowed with scriptural knowledge and realization, you will quickly attain perfection.
|| 6.16.65 ||
śrī-śuka uvāca
āśvāsya bhagavān itthaṁ
citraketuṁ jagad-guruḥ
paśyatas tasya viśvātmā
tataś cāntardadhe hariḥ
Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: After thus instructing Citraketu and assuring him of perfection in this way, the Supreme Lord, who is the supreme guru, the soul of the universe, disappeared as Citraketu watched.
Thus ends the commentary on the Sixteenth Chapter of the Sixth Canto of the Bhāgavatam for the pleasure of the devotees, in accordance with the previous ācāryas.
