By these six samādhis let him pass his time unceasingly. When the appropriation of the body has melted away and the Supreme Self is known — wherever the mind goes, there is the supreme nectar.

It is worth noting the verb galite, "melted away," from gal, "to drip, to melt." It says not "cast off" and not "destroyed," but melted away, as snow melts. The word is precisely chosen and worth voicing.
The appropriation of the body is not cast off by decision: one cannot resolve, starting tomorrow, not to consider the body one's own. It melts — that is, it diminishes slowly and of itself, as something else is done. The Vaiṣṇava side holds this too, and that hindrances diminish one by one and gradually, not falling away all at once, was discussed when reading the Yājñavalkya (12).
Let us add the last half-verse: yatra yatra mano yāti tatra tatra parāmṛtam, "wherever the mind goes, there is the supreme nectar." This verse almost word for word repeats the one that closed the second chapter of the Saubhāgyalakṣmī (2.19), where it read paraṃ padam, "the supreme place"; here it reads parāmṛta, "the supreme nectar." We examined it there, and let us repeat the conclusion, for it is confirmed here too.
To read it as "it does not matter what one thinks of" is false; it should be read thus: wherever the mind has gone, there He meets it. And let us add what the change of word contributes here: it says not "place" but "nectar"; that is, the meeting is described not as arriving somewhere, but as a taste.
