सहकार्यादिहेतूनामभावे शून्यतो जगत् ।
स्वयंभूर्जायते चेति किलोन्मत्तकफूत्कृतम् ॥ २४ ॥

sahakāryādihetūnāmabhāve śūnyato jagat |
svayaṃbhūrjāyate ceti kilonmattakaphūtkṛtam || 24 ||

The world is inane owing to its want of the accompaniment of secondary (i.e. material and instrumental) causes and is selfborn: and to call it as born or produced, is to breathe the breath (of life) like a madman.
