Fresh English translation

First, hear the truth from the excellent mouth of the true guru; then let it enter the heart and wash away diverse desires. Pass time in worship of the Lord, observing especially what is pure and obligatory. Hold the excellent intent of holy books and abandon faults fabricated by the mind. Regard blame and praise equally and roast the seeds of desire; understand the stainless discrimination that is the course of Yugalānanya’s surrendered one. Joyfully perform the dharma best suited to your stage of life and family, abandoning laziness, falsehood, and sensual sport from within it. Surrender all resources wherever a trace of personal pride remains. Turn mind and understanding away from everyone else and worship the sacred treasury of joy. Apply wealth, home, and everything continually to the Beloved’s benefit; celebrate festivals in many ways and overflow with love. Worship saint and guru lovingly with body, mind, and wealth. Keep the vision of faults far away and know them as dwellings of abundant virtues. Understand false company as painful and abandon it continually. Adorn yourself with good taste through saintly company and awaken attachment to the Lord. Remain intent during all five periods according to this excellent rule; never abandon their sequence in any way, but act with love and trust. Know the first observance, approaching the Lord, as supremely stainless and incomparable: good people cleanse body, mind, and the rest according to their tradition. Gathering materials, begging alms, worship, and study of revelation follow; fifth is yoga—the mind composed in meditation upon the object of meditation. Perform them all at their proper times in conformity with your own true nature. In Yugalānanya’s refuge, the mind’s thorn of becoming will certainly disappear. Remain continually attentive and endure the dualities and sorrows of becoming; Yugalānanya’s refuge will surely gain union with the Lord of life.
