अरोधकत्वात्खं हेतुर्यथा वृक्षसमुन्नतेः ।
अकर्तापि तथा कर्ता चेतनाब्धिर्जगत्स्थितेः ॥ २८ ॥

arodhakatvātkhaṃ heturyathā vṛkṣasamunnateḥ |
akartāpi tathā kartā cetanābdhirjagatsthiteḥ || 28 ||

And yet God is said to be the cause and substratum, of all these unobstructed phantoms rising to the view, as the empty air is said to be the receptacle of the rising trees. Thus the uncausal God is said to be the cause of this uncaused world, which only exists in our illusive conceptions, and presents itself to our delusive sensations of it.
