मुक्तौ तु नान्यथा प्राप्तिरिति भावितचेतसः ।
स्वां दृष्टिं प्रविवृण्वन्ति स्वैरेव नियमभ्रमैः ॥ २९ ॥

muktau tu nānyathā prāptiriti bhāvitacetasaḥ |
svāṃ dṛṣṭiṃ pravivṛṇvanti svaireva niyamabhramaiḥ || 29 ||

Thus all sects give out their own views, in the false rules they have adopted for the salvation of their supposed minds; and assert that there is no other way to it, beside what is laid down by them.
