सर्गादिदीर्घसंवित्या शैलादिजडसंविदा ।
सूक्ष्मं सूक्ष्मविदा चेति देहं शून्यं न वास्तवम् ॥ ४१ ॥

sargādidīrghasaṃvityā śailādijaḍasaṃvidā |
sūkṣmaṃ sūkṣmavidā ceti dehaṃ śūnyaṃ na vāstavam || 41 ||

He beheld the whole creation in the self-consciousness (samvitti) of his vast mind, and he saw the material objects, the hills &c., in the samvid of his gross personal consciousness. At last he perceived by his sukshma vid subtile sightedness (clairvoyance), that all gross bodies were as empty as air and not solid substantialities. (Consciousness being the joint knowledge of the subjective and objective, i. e. of ourselves in connection with others; the one is called superior or subjective self-consciousness, and the other or objective personal-consciousness).{GL_NOTE:73137:}
