प्रतिभासकलामात्रं मनो जीवस्तथात्मनि ।
यदेतन्मनसो रूपमुदितं मननात्मकम् ॥ १६ ॥

pratibhāsakalāmātraṃ mano jīvastathātmani |
yadetanmanaso rūpamuditaṃ mananātmakam || 16 ||

The principles of thought and animation said:—the mind and life, are but partial reflections of the Divine Soul; and the form of mind is the faculty of thought, as that of life is the power of animation.
