3.54

तारकं सर्वविषयं सर्वथाविषयमक्रमंचेति विवेकजं ज्ञानम् ॥५४॥
tarakam sarva vishayam sarvatha vishayam akramam cheti vivekajam jnanam ||54||

[RS] 3.54 Knowledge that is born of discernment transcends all objects, all beings and all time.

[JW] 3.54 The [intuitive] knowledge proceeding from discrimination is a deliverer, has all things as its object, and has all times for its object, and is an [inclusive whole] without sequence.

[SS] 3.55 The discriminative knowledge that simultaneously comprehends all objects in all conditions is the intuitive knowledge which brings liberation. [p202]

[EB] 3.54 Knowledge born of discrimination is a liberator; it has everything as its object at all times simultaneously. [p401]
