Can you describe the state of 'Nivrutti' and the consciousness of a Self-realized person?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 17

The state of 'Nivrutti,' or cessation, arises when the knowledge of the Self is attained, causing the worldly inclination (Samsara-pravrutti) to end. As detailed in Chapter 17, a person in this state, the Knower of the Self, is always devoid of ego. They exist beyond the dualities of dharma and adharma, good and bad, and have no interest in worldly benefit or harm. When the bodily ego dissolves, the soul attains the state of the Supreme Self. In this state of Nivrutti, one sees only the Self everywhere, dissolving the concepts of enemy and friend. Such a being is unshakable, remaining unmoved like a mountain of courage even if 'mountains of worldly sorrow collapse upon him.'
