અખા દ્વૈત થયે ઉપાધ્ય તન મન વિના એ સાધન સાધ્ય.
— Akha Bhagat
Meaning

O Akha, when duality arises, it becomes a predicament. Without the body and mind, that means (to overcome it or achieve spiritual realization) cannot be accomplished.

Explanation

The poet Akho shares a profound thought: he says that all our troubles and burdens come from seeing the world as dualistic. This means perceiving everything as separate, like 'me' and 'you', or 'God' and 'creation'. He beautifully explains that true spiritual realization, our ultimate goal, isn't something you achieve through your physical body or even your intellectual mind. Instead, it's a state you reach when you move beyond these limitations. It's about embracing oneness and letting go of that sense of separation, finding a deep truth within, unburdened by the illusions of duality.
