Subject [विषय - स्वामी दयानन्द] - How is that God is taught in the 20th Mantra.
Translation [अन्वय - स्वामी दयानन्द] - Righteous, wise, active learned devotees of God see within their own spotless souls with pure knowledge the All-pervading Blissful State of God who is Omnipresent and All-bliss. They see it within, as ordinary men see the grand sun in the sky.
Commentator's Notes [पदार्थ - स्वामी दयानन्द] -
(पदम् ) अन्वेष्टव्यं ज्ञातव्यं प्राप्तव्यं वा ( पदी-गतौ ज्ञानं गमन प्राप्तिश्च )
= The Blissful state to be sought after, known or attained. (सूरयः) धार्मिका मेधाविनः पुरुषार्थयुक्ता विद्वांसः । सूरिरिति स्तोतनामसु पठितम् (निघ० ३.१६) अत्र सूङः क्रि: (उणादि ४.६५) इत्यमेव सूङ् धातोः क्रिः प्रत्ययः । Learned men of righteous nature, wise and industrious. (दिवि इव ) यथा सूर्यादिप्रकाशे विमलेन ज्ञानेन स्वात्मनि वा = Within their own souls endowed with pure wisdom.
Purport [भावार्थ - स्वामी दयानन्द] - There is Upamalankar or simile used in this Mantra. As ordinary beings see in the light of the sun with pure or healthy eyes all embodied substances, so wise learned persons see within their souls purified with wisdom and noble thoughts, with pure knowledge the Blissful state of emancipation worthy of attainment and attain it. No one can enjoy real happiness without attaining this state. Therefore every one should exert one's best to attain this happiness. Wilson's statement in his notes on the translation of the Rigveda regarding the words Paramam Padam that "Supreme degree or station. The Scholiast (Sayanacharya) says Swarga but that is very questionable" is false or erroneous, as the term Paramam Padam does not stand for Swarga but for the Blissful State of emancipation.
