Verse 18.27
विमुक्तिचित्तस्य विमुक्तिदर्शना अचिन्तिया तर्कपथेन निश्रिता ।
असंकिया वीरगिरा विरोचते या सा सुवेला मृदु सत्यसंभवा ॥ २७ ॥
vimukticittasya vimuktidarśanā acintiyā tarkapathena niśritā |
asaṃkiyā vīragirā virocate yā sā suvelā mṛdu satyasaṃbhavā || 27 ||
The words that proclaim emancipation of mind and reveal deliverance, are beyond thought, yet are fixed in the way of reason, sound strong and clear, are eloquent, gentle, and instinct with truth. (27)
