SAY GOODBYE GO TO THAI! Tsuki (Madisyn) Hanna will be departing by plane for 9-10 months to go to North East Thailand. When we interviewed she said her number one goal was to not die, second to learn the language of the country. To our surprise the cost that she had to pay was a whopping $4,500, but luckily that pays for housing and food. Her original place of choice was not Thailand; it was in fact, Japan. Even though it was not her first choice she is still happy to learn about new cultures. She will be staying with a host family and most of her schedule depends on what they want to do, but she hopes she will be able to see some Buddhist temples and some ruins. To prepare to go she has to finish her junior classes during her sophomore year as well as getting exams and up to date shots. Even though all this work and money is required, her parents are happy to let her go. |

Studio Moving Announcement: Cross-Country Train Version
This past month I've moved studio (and home) from coastal island life in the Pacific Northwest (or Southwestern Canada, depending on one's viewpoint) to the Great Lakes region.
Making a cross-country move provided a perfect opportunity to travel in style. So we boarded The Canadian, VIA Rail's 4-day passenger train journey from Vancouver to Toronto.
Sleeper car cabins, dining car meals and dome car views made this a very memorable long-distance move (including time to doodle a bit).
The new studio is set up and back to business as usual, now located an hour west of Toronto (in Guelph, Ontario). Away from work at the drawing desk I've so far managed to find a barber, a bike shop, and a seat at a Blue Jays baseball game– vital elements in a new home town!
The new studio phone number is 519-836-5647 and my email remains email@example.com.

If there is a Western culture, a lack of snobbery lies at its heart. Even in the literature it shows: A rancher's memoirs share a bookshelf with poems that don't rhyme. Both writers are from Montana, and natives brag on them both. Rural cafés often sell local arts and crafts, whether it's homemade pottery or country scenes painted on old saws—and locals will buy both. Montanans respect people who are creative; rare is the rural community that doesn't have a resident poet, painter, or musician. L'art naïf or kitsch? In Montana, as often as not, it's the urge to express that's admired; it's not polite to question the quality of the expression.
From pioneers who kept journals and sent letters back east, to fifth-generation ranchers, to established novelists who have found a home in the state, Montana's literary tradition is a source of pride to Montanans, who generally read a lot and who positively devour the work of regional writers. It's not surprising that Montana should harbor such a dynamic writing community. It's a small step to go from respecting the work of a local rhymester to welcoming a nationally known author to the farm next door.

I was happy with this product (In ivory). I use it for my under eye circles and it works rather well. I get them bad due to insomnia and stress, so I'm glad I found this concealer. It smells lovely, and doesn't feel heavy or cakey. It didn't crease for me, either.

After seeing the price of this, I knew I had to try it. Anyway, it blends nicely, and all, but, throughout the day is got a tad but ashy. Also, at school someone told me "why is it all white under your eyes?" (um RUDE!) So, yeah, but other than that, it worth the price. If your desprete for any concealer, try it! If you want a nice fresh look(like me!), save your money, and don't give up!

Not a fan! First of all, this broke me out after only a few uses! I wound up using it as a makeshift eye primer. It's really watery and not at all long lasting. It doesn't provide heavy coverage, which is something I usually look for in a concealer. The only good thing I have to say about this product is its smell. It smells like oranges, but you get sick of it really quickly! I love most ELF products, but this is not one of them!

I understand that people complain about this product being too thing as a tone concealer for blemishes, but I choose to use it as an under eye concealer, and it works great in that regard. I love the scent too, but especially the price, since it was only $1...much cheaper than most under eye concealers I have bought that worked no better.

This concealer was so-so. I think it's okay for an extremely light coverage but it still doesn't show up that well on the skin. It's really watery but has a very nice smell. I actually like the orangey smell that they've used in a couple of their products. I do sometimes use this if I want a light amount of makeup but I mainly use my Revlon or Glamoflauge concealer. I will finish this tube up but I wiill not repurchase this concealer. If you're on a tight budget and not looking for a ton of coverage then get this.

E.L.F. has long history of naming their products for some mismatched function, then acting all confused when consumers use it for something completely different. Case in point: My Powder brush is used for liquid foundation.
When I first got this concealer, I too wanted to throw it out and shout a few none too nice words at it. It's very sheer for a concealer, and it's orange. When you have acne like I do (although it is healing), sheer and orange do not a good concealer make.
Then I saw the reveiws that said this concealer is actually much better as a corrector for those stubborn undereye circles. I tried it and they're right! It's creamy and perfectly colored to cancel out undereye darkness without creasing. For $1, I'll take it.
I also love that it has an orange type scent (which, admittedly goes with it's color). Normally scented products bother me, but this isn't too overpowering and actually smells quite nice.
So E.L.F. do us all a favor. Rename this as a corrector, and watch the sales go up when people realize what this little product is capable of.
Oh, and quit calling it the Powder Brush. 90% of us use for foundation anyways.

Great concealer to have around! Got this at Target for a dollar! Smells like citrus, as does the Tinted Moisturizer from the Essential line. Covers pretty well and blends nicely. Okay color selection, but only for light-medium skin tones are only Target.

I first bought this off eBay, not really knowing what to expect, because at the time I had very little experience with Elf products.
I bought the shade 'Ivory' with the intention of using it in a multipurpose fashion.
The coverage is fairly thin and wasn't really working for my blemishes, which I could have blamed on how cheap the product is, but really it's quite common for me to experience that with liquid concealers.
So instead, I exclusively used it under my eyes.
I don't have bad discolouration or bags, so I don't need anything heavy, and this works amazingly for what I need it to. Ivory is such a light shade that it actually brightens my under eye area, which is rare for a drugstore brand.
I used one tube up, and bought another, in the exact same shade 'Ivory', but for some reason it was actually darker than the original tube I had...I don't know how to explain it, but the one I own now is somehow darker and more yellow-toned.
So all in all, not amazing for blemishes in my opinion, but to achieve a low-cost Kim Kardashian brightened eye look, get a shade or two lighter than your skin tone and voila!
I nominated 'yes' to repurchase, but honestly I'm not sure, since the shades may have changed, but then again I might have just gotten an incorrectly labelled one/bad one.

I love ELF products. This was a HIGE DISSAPOINTMENT. In my opinion the best thing is the scent. It smells like Oranges. Horrible concealer, This did nothing but accentuate my flakes, ( I have dry skin). Worst concealer ever, its only a dollar which is ok. I have never tried a worse concealer then this. also the cap broke off. As I was twisting it the top part of the cap came off, It has terrible packaging and is unsanitary, never try this!

i love a lot of my elf products, this wasn't my favorite from them though. this was one of my first concealers. i got it in light beige which is perfect for my skin tone. it actually does last a long time, i bought it several times and it's lasted about a month and a half. it's very light coverage, so it's good for those who are beginners to makeup. it's not good for covering blemishes though. it smells like oranges, some people may like that, i don't. this was what you'd expect though from a $1 concealer, i love the price. and the concealer's pretty good for $1.

This is a great concealer, especially for the budget conscious. I have terrible dark circles and this product covers up well and also gives a luminosity to the skin underneath my eyes. As I am very pale I order the colour Ivory, which is a perfect match for me. It contains the same sweet orange smell as the Tinted Moisturiser, which some people may not like but I can overlook this for the price of it.

I use this concealer as a lipstick base. It evens my lips and makes them the same color so I'm able to wear lipsticks that I usually couldn't. It does the job and I am very pleased. I would even wear this concealer on my lips by itself because it looks that good! I have it in spice.

This concealer is great for the undereyes, at least if you don't have major dark undereye circles. It's very low coverage, and I don't have very dark undereyes, so it works fine for me, but if you're looking for a concealer that will cover everything, this isn't the way to go. It's pretty liquidy, and it has a citrus smell to it. The cap broke off on mines, so now it's extremely short. It can be sometimes a little oily, but it's not too bad considering the price. Definitely a very low coverage concealer, but of course different coverage levels are meant for different things. Would recommend it!

I actually really like this concealer for under my eyes, but it's probably because I don't have dark circles. I'm an NC50 and I use beige and blend it just enough so that it gives me a little brightness. I also use this to contour my nose and it's great! I have a super oily t-zone so the only thing I don't like is that it doesn't last that long (but that's probably because i'm a grease monkey lol) and the consistency is kind of on the "watery" side if that makes any sense. Definitely not for blemishes, I doubt it would even give decent/long enough coverage and it's way too light for that. Overall good product, great price!

This was the first concealer I ever bought. It's low coverage and really creamy, I sometimes use it as an eyeshadow primer or under my eyes when I have dark circles. I would have to say it works well unless it's to cover blemishes, it is a little too light coverage for that. It blends well. I would definitely buy it again!

TOL Our Town
- A tumblr site dedicated to the people and places that make up Oregon and Southwest Washington.
ozragreen's comments:
on The Oregon Coast Lifestyle
I'm very pleased that the Portland-centered Think Out Loud has finally headed to the coast where I was born and grew up and where my father was a logger and mother a nurse at Bay Area Hospital. My parents are still in Coos Bay and my life is still very much shaped by the coast even if I can't find a job there.
My question though is why didn't TOL interview any of the fishermen in Newport, or the loggers, or the folks who live off the natural resources there (such as farmers, herders, etc)? I think it's important to bring "new money" and jobs to the coast--I truly do, but you didn't bring anywhere into this conversation the people who have lived there the longest and who have struggled the longest and WAY BEFORE the "economic downturn" that we're currently experiencing. Furthermore, it would be useful to look beyond the local and address the ways that the federal government has severely limited the ability for fisherman, farmers, and loggers to survive on the coast. I've seen the destructions of limitations on fishing and logging (even sustainably!), meted out by the federal government with the agreement of state officials, in my home town of Coos Bay and up and down the coast. Why didn't this come into the discussion?
If you want to get at the "real" heartbeat of the coast, you would have brought farmers, fishermen, and loggers to your forum. AS I said, I appreciate the focus on the coast, but only focussing on newcomers and "entreprenuers" is unfortunate and not reflective of the families and individuals like myself who grew up and continue to live on the coast.

on Jane Lubchenco and Richard Alley
I'm from Coos Bay, Oregon, and I don't feel that the discussion on marine fisheries reserves has been fair and scientific as Ms. Lubchenko notes. Most of the discussions cite information about marine reserves from climates such as South Africa and South America, and even southern California. These are climates very different from ORegon's even if they are scientific. Currently, this discussion is seeking to shut down fishing on the coast, that many families rely on. I wonder how Ms. Lubchencko is going to encourage that scientists actually conduct science that is relevant and based on our particular coast rather than citing studies from far off geographies that don't really relate to the Oregon coast?

Yeah thanks for that, Melanick. Currently they're still showing "pre-order" with a delivery of 19-26 March; which, interestingly enough, has been pushed back from 16-23 March a few days ago.
Looks like many will get their hands on a brand new HV20 sooner than originally thought (~April 8th).
Just got off the Phone with BestBuy. My Hv20 will be at my house on March 21!!
I ordered mine today the 19th and it says Back-ordered. Did you get an email from them yet? I too hope to get it this week.
I called BestBuy today, and the sales person said it is in stock....preorder. I asked which one. She said; it's in stock and will ship between 23rd and 28th march. I ask, is it in stock, do you have it on the shelf? She says: no, it can be preordered.
(BTW, it was "on-sale" yesterday for $1049.00)

Print off the free Introduction (PDF Format) for more information on the Last Gasp.The Last Gasp is a Victorian murder mystery which runs for about three hours. Everyone taking part is given a character in the plot. As well as having a murder to investigate, characters will also have their own, secret objectives. Why does the church choir only accept female members? Where is the Earl hiding all his money? Can anyone persuade Captain Ratliffe to do the decent thing? At "The Last Gasp", anything can happen – and generally does! The Plot It is New Year's Eve, 1899. George Sweet, the 5th Earl of Coddingham, has lead a wicked and dissolute life. His past is finally catching up with him and, eager to keep out of reach of the law, he is planning to flee abroad. Before he goes, he is holding one final party: "The Last Gasp". Invited to it are all the people to whom his appalling behavior has brought the most grief and heartache: his ex-wives, Florence and Dawn, his present wife, Jojo, his ballet dancer son, William, and his long-suffering friend, Bernard. George is determined to use his party to make up for past mistakes. People from the Earl's local village and members of his staff are also at "The Last Gasp": the local vicar is recruiting new members for the church choir, cavalry officer Captain Ratliffe is breaking a few more women's hearts, and Jarvis, the Earl's loyal butler, is making sure no one steals the sherry. The Earl's plans go slightly awry, however, when the police unexpectedly turn up, hoping to arrest someone for murder. Who do they want to arrest? The Earl of Coddingham … |

A clash of titans: The emerging rivalry between India and China
India and China are two of the world's emerging superpowers whose prestige was most recently demonstrated both by President Obama's state visit to India (11/7/10-11/10/10), looking for opportunities to increase trade between our countries as well as the ongoing U.S. tête–à–tête with China regarding that country's economic and military power.
Raghav Bahl, the Managing Director of Network 18, India's largest television news network, brings great resources to bear in his analysis of why the race between China (the Hare), and India (the Tortoise) is important with particular reference to describing the attributes of both countries as well as the implications for their rivalry over the next half century (Bahl, 2010).
Who does Bahl believe is going to win this race, and what are the implications for the U.S. in particular and the rest of the world in general?
Chinese competitive attributes
Bahl's analysis is superb with respect to his sophisticated evaluation of the economic and political characteristics of both countries. He posits that in the short term China has the greatest advantages owing both to its manufacturing base, as well as its ability through the medium of large cash surpluses. This allows for persuasive and effective bargaining with respect to mergers and acquisitions outside of China as well as its capacity through a planned economy to create and implement effective five year plans.
Having said that, there is a downside to the Chinese good fortune as well. The Chinese have exploited the global consumer-led economic demand surge by focusing on investments and exports. As Dahl notes: "This has made it vulnerable to the fortunes of non-Chinese consumers." He observes that the Chinese expansion has come at the expense of civil liberties most recently exemplified by their protest to the awarding of the Nobel Prize to the Chinese dissident and scholar Liu Xiaobo. Finally, the largest deterrent to the preservation of the Chinese economic miracle is the advancing age of their population, which decreases their competitiveness as time goes.
India, as Dahl argues, also brings great resources to bear in this race, but it is perceived at this point to play second fiddle in its mutual competition with China which has overwhelming prestige and power. India's strengths relate to its vibrant democracy, the world's largest, as well as the ability of its robust entrepreneurial classes to develop and implement innovative solutions to global business opportunities using English as its lingua franca. This is further complemented by the relative youth of the India population.
Where India is disadvantaged in at least the medium term is in their paucity of modern infrastructure, as was evidenced by the difficulties in constructing adequate public stadiums for the 2010 Commonwealth Games and its ongoing rivalry with Pakistan. Further constraints on India's economic competitiveness also include the prevalence of internal armed insurrections that continue to spring up within India proper.
Implications of Bahl's work
Why is this book important? What are the implications for the rest of the world regarding both the race between the Chinese Hare and the Indian Tortoise, and the ability of the U.S. to steer an advantageous course with respect to both of these competitors?
First, Mr. Bahl exhibits an exquisite sensibility and intimate sense regarding the attributes and flaws of both of these countries. Though he's an Indian patriot, through the benefit of a fine analytical mind he is able to analyze in some detail the policy implications of Chinese strengths and weaknesses.
He is quick to note that China's leadership, President Hu Jintao and Prime Minister Wen Jiabao, can effectively use their authority through the auspices of a planned economy to make the hard decisions regarding infrastructure and energy that will create advantages in their competition with India over the short and medium term (for at least the next 20 years). Bahl argues that the Chinese face a potential pivot point in 20 years owing to the rapid aging of the Chinese population, and the pressures brought about by domestic Chinese consumers and ethnic factions which may impact their global competitiveness.
Bahl believes India's advantages relate primarily to the fact that it is a democracy, and that English is the official language of the Indian government and commerce. Bahl describes India as being a tortoise whose greatest strengths rely in its ability to persevere for the long haul.
However, there are a series of compounding and potentially escalating implications for India as well. Can it continue to feed its population as well as bring more and more of its populace into the middle class while overcoming infrastructure difficulties? Will India be able to capitalize on its business process re-engineering capabilities to make itself an effective global player for the remainder of this century and beyond?
Both of these countries have compelling advantages and disadvantages as they continue to emerge on the world stage. Raghav Bahl has provided us with the benefit of his wisdom to further the process of analysis on how best to engage with both of these countries while at the same time helping to protect U.S. interests in an ongoing competition with both of these emerging global super powers.
This is a must read for policy makers and forecasters of global economic trends.

According to gegloma01 (post #578) it's 1 metre taller than One Canada Square, which would make it 236m AGL.

No idea about the occupancy rate.
Prices are not exaggerated given it is in London, and in the centre of one of the main European business district. Example: Level 43, 151 sq.m is to buy for £ 1,550,000. |

Well, if they're quoting the London Plan in their opposition, then there is actually method in their madness, and regardless of how it should be interpreted, this is clearly a problem that goes beyond Tower Hamlets, and involves the city wide government, which indicates that if there ever was a reason for the Mayor to get involved and demonstrate exactly what the approach should be towards this sort of density, now would be it.

Don't know how there can be such an opposition to density considering the lacking in housing at the mo.

I know, guys, I have to contain myself not to have a rant. I really think that CP, Arrowhead, Cuba, Skylines and so on could transform CW into something really really special - instead we witnessing these endless wrangelings over the height and size of the proposals. I mean it is 21st cent, guys at TH, hello?!

Hi everyone, I just thought I'd pop in and let you all know about a thread in SSC's The Barracks re the Falkland Islands issue with Argentina. If any of you would like to join the discussion and possibly vote in the poll which is asking if you agree that the Falklands should have the right of self determination or should they be handed to Argentina, then that would be great.

This residential tower will not be overshadowing a residential area, so this rationale to reduce the tower height would not stand up at this particular site.

at worst, it will be reduced by 17m, as the 216m version has already been approved.

One un-pleased reader writes, in response to the notice about changes in our presentation of religion coverage:
Once again, The Dallas Morning News eliminates an award-winning section, and once again you expect us to accept your bogus explanation.
Admit it. The Religion section isnt being moved to Metro to increase
visibility for religion content. It's being done to cut costs, the
same way you eliminated the Personal Technology section by burying it inside the
Business section, never to be read again.
I fully expect one day to pick up the paper and find only two sections,
the sports section and, hopefully, the front section. The sports
section will contain 23 stories about the rise and fall of the Cowboys.
The front page will contain a story that Dallas Morning News circulation
dips again and executives cant figure out why. They won't be smart
enough to figure out that its not just the Internet that has made
newspapers irrelevant. It's lamebrained decisions like this one.

There are many strategies to improve summary writing. It is a great skill to have as a reader, writer, and movie-goer. You want to be able to write all kinds of summaries – some short, condensed, and simple, some elaborate, long, and extremely detailed. Writing summaries is an easy skill to learn and an even easier skill to practice. Summaries are an important part of our everyday lives that help us to share information quickly. Keep reading to learn more about strategies to improve summary writing.
Remember that you are not writing a review: You are writing a summary. Keep your own reflections out of your summary, and aim to share information instead of opinions.
You can practice writing summaries about almost anything.
Then, take those skills you have practiced and translate them to the page.
In general, it is a good idea to consider having a summary outline format to keep your writing on point.
Creativity in a summary is a good way to introduce new ideas and topics into a summary, but consider that it is more important to give accurate information than creative opinions and fillers.
It is far more effective to keep a summary short – people are always more eager to read something short than something long, and the longer something is, the greater a chance there is of including mistakes or misinformation within a piece of writing.
When writing a summary, try creating two columns on a piece of paper: One for important information, and one for trivial information.
Organize your thoughts on this page, and try to only include important information in your summary. Trivial information will be organized in this list for your future reference, but you don't have to worry about putting it in your written summary.
The best summaries are usually only a paragraph long. See if you can develop your own favorite format for organizing summary information in a paragraph. Remember that usually, readers of summaries will be skimming for information, and they won't take time to read carefully. This means you will have to be clear and to the point.
For more information about strategies to improve summary writing, speak to a teacher or professor who can critique your summary writing work.

Last post 29-04-2010 6:29 AM by Roy Bretton. 3 replies.
Page 1 of 1 (4 items)
hi, have recently just moved house and the new garden is a weed hot spot to say the least.
can any one give me an idea of what i can do or use etc etc
the patch in the middle is where the previous people had a fire so have planted some grass seed etc in there which seems to be growing ok
thanks so much in advance
Looks like a thriving infestation of dandelions (Taraxacum officinale).
First thing, mow right away before they set seed, that will help reduce the risk of seeding a whole new crop, though the seeds do float for long distances so some will inevitably drift in.
There are two ways to get rid of them. You can apply a selective herbicide, which kills broad-leaf weeds but leaves grass intact. Check with your local garden centre. Some granular lawn dressings contain these herbicides as well as fertilisers, or they are available as liquids for spraying or watering on. Take great care spraying herbicides, if the drops drift in the wind they can damage your valued plants, or worse, the neighbour's. In my experience dandelions are among the easier weeds to kill with selective herbicides. There is more advice on the RHS advice pages:
if the link works, or go to Gardening/Advice/Problems/Lawns:weed control
Or, if you have time and patience (and this isnt a very large plot), you can use an old kitchen knife to cut them off well below ground level. There is a flat rosette of leaves attached to a deep, fleshy taproot. Stick the knife in at an angle to cut the root as far below ground as possible and hoick the plant out. Rather a satisfying proceedure, I find. You do need to cut deep, because they will regrow from the remaining bit of root from quite deep down.
thanks very much for your help. i'll go there tomorrow and see what they have on offer and whats more suited to me.
First of all I would cut the lawn, but not to short, many people make the mistake of cutting there lawn to short. If you cut your lawn to short, weeds have a better chance of thriving, especially in drought conditions.
As for your weed problem, I would suggest using a granular weed and feed, this is best applied, when a reasonable amount rain is forecast and ideally applied, mid way, between cuts. You can spray the weeds, but you can have the added problem of spray drift, touching other plants in your garden.
Most garden centres can supply weed and feed products, I hope this helps your weed problem.

International Studies, Political Science, and French major
Hi, my name is Jordan Hollander and I am an International Studies, Political Science, and French major from Branchburg, New Jersey.
During my college search, I knew that I wanted to go to a small, liberal arts school. I first heard about Lycoming at a local college fair, and as soon as I stepped foot on campus, I knew that Lyco was where I wanted to study. The college has a great atmosphere: small student population, friendly people, and great professors. At Lyco, you get to know your classmates and professors really well; you are not just a number in a giant lecture hall. Sometimes, professors will even invite their students to dinner at their houses.
It is really easy to get involved on campus. I sing in several different choirs, and I am a member of the French Club, the Political Science Club, College Republicans, and Pre-Law Society. I also participate in intramural sports and play varsity golf. There is a lot to do at Lyco, and you don't even need to leave campus to find activities. If you do, Williamsport has a lot of great coffee shops, restaurants, golf courses, stores, and two movie theaters.
I chose to major in International Studies because it gives me the opportunity to combine my love of politics and learning different languages. International Studies is an interdisciplinary field, and you get to take classes in several different departments, including political science, history, economics, and foreign languages (French, German, or Spanish). Dr. Larson, the program advisor is a great professor and really knowledgeable in the field.
Studying abroad is an important part of International Studies, and there are many opportunities to study in another country and get credit towards the major at Lyco. The college has affiliates in France, Spain, Germany, England, Costa Rica and Ecuador. Also, if there is a program that Lyco does not have an official affiliation with, you can still do it! In the summer, I studied at Université Laval in Québec City, Canada. I took three classes, all in French. It was a great experience to live in another country, completely immersed in another language and culture and it was a great opportunity to apply what I have learned as an International Studies major and to expand on that knowledge. I had a great time and hope to study abroad again in the future.
After Lycoming, I hope to go to law school or to get a PhD in Political Science or International Studies. I know that Lycoming will have prepared me well for graduate school and for my future career. I hope that you will consider Lycoming College and being an International Studies major!

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
I have found that Karma in disc golf is very real. Last Wednesday, my wife and I were about to start a round at Reed Canal Park and she finds a $20 on the tee pad. I throw it in the bag with my discs and figured I'll use it on Thursday to pay for league doubles. Just as we were finishing our round, a girl comes up and asks if we found a $20 and we were able to give this girl back her money.
On to Thursday. Joined in on the league doubles at Reed and won. I got $10 for winning,…

Canto 10: The Summum Bonum | Chapter 87: The Prayers of the Personified Vedas |
Bhaktivedanta VedaBase: Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 10.87.3
śrraddhayā dhārayed yas tāḿ
kṣemaḿ gacched akiñcanaḥ
sā eṣā — this same; hi — indeed; upaniṣat — Upaniṣad, confidential spiritual doctrine; brāhmī — related to the Absolute Truth; pūrveṣām — of our predecessors (such as Nārada); pūrva-jaiḥ — by the predecessors (such as Sanaka); dhṛta — meditated upon; śraddhayā — with faith; dhārayet — meditates; yaḥ — whoever; tām — upon it; kṣemam — ultimate success; gacchet — will attain; akiñcanaḥ — free from material connection.
Those who came before even our ancient predecessors meditated upon this same confidential knowledge of the Absolute Truth. Indeed, anyone who faithfully concentrates on this knowledge will become free from material attachments and attain the final goal of life.
This confidential knowledge concerning the Absolute Truth should not be doubted, since it has been passed down through authoritative lines of learned sages from time immemorial. One who cultivates the science of the Supreme with reverence, avoiding the distractions of fruitive rituals and mental speculation, will learn to give up the false designations of material body and mundane society, and thus he will become eligible for perfection.
In the opinion of Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī, the first two verses of this chapter can be considered an Upaniṣad on the topic of Brahman. Śukadeva Gosvāmī here disclaims authorship on the grounds that this Upaniṣad was spoken previously by Nārada Muni, who himself heard it from Sanaka Kumāra.
