शास्त्रसंव्यवहारार्थं तस्यास्य वितताकृतेः ।
चिद्ब्रह्मात्मेति नामानि कल्पितानि कृतात्मभिः ॥ ३५ ॥

śāstrasaṃvyavahārārthaṃ tasyāsya vitatākṛteḥ |
cidbrahmātmeti nāmāni kalpitāni kṛtātmabhiḥ || 35 ||

This all pervasive Being is explained to us by the learned, by the coined epithets of the soul, intellect and Brahma, used both in the sastras as in the popular language.
