योऽन्तःसुखोऽन्तरारामस्तथान्तर्ज्योतिरेव यः ।स योगी ब्रह्मनिर्वाणं ब्रह्मभूतोऽधिगच्छति ॥

yo 'ntaḥsukho 'ntarārāmas tathāntarjyotir eva yaḥ |sa yogī brahmanirvāṇaṃ brahmabhūto 'dhigacchati ||

अन्तःसुखः · antaḥsukhaḥ
happy within
अन्तरारामः · antarārāmaḥ
delighting within
अन्तर्ज्योतिः · antarjyotiḥ
with inner light
योगी · yogī
yogi
अधिगच्छति · adhigacchati
attains

One whose happiness is within, whose delight is within, whose light is within — that yogi, become Brahman, attains extinction in Brahman.

Original plain-language translation

A triple inwardness replaces outer seeking: joy, rest, and vision all inside. Such a yogi does not merely approach Brahman but becomes it. Nirvana here means the blowing-out of separateness.
