Tattva Bodha · passage 41
Freed while living
एवं च वेदान्तवाक्यैः सद्गुरूपदेशेन च सर्वेष्वपि भूतेषु येषां ब्रह्मबुद्धिरुत्पन्ना ते जीवन्मुक्ताः इत्यर्थः ।
evaṃ ca vedāntavākyaiḥ sadgurūpadeśena ca sarveṣvapi bhūteṣu yeṣāṃ brahmabuddhirutpannā te jīvanmuktāḥ ityarthaḥ |
And so, in whatever beings the knowledge of Brahman has arisen, through the sentences of Vedānta and through a true teacher's instruction, they are the ones freed while still living. This is the meaning.
In plain words
Thus, those beings in whom the knowledge of Brahman has arisen, through the teachings of Vedānta and the instruction of a true guru, are liberated while still living (jīvanmukta). This is the meaning.
