यस्यालोकाल्लोकपालाः समालोकाः सुवेदिनः ।
शरीरं पान्त्ययमिव पश्यन्मूढाः क्षपार्णवे ॥ ५४ ॥

yasyālokāllokapālāḥ samālokāḥ suvedinaḥ |
śarīraṃ pāntyayamiva paśyanmūḍhāḥ kṣapārṇave || 54 ||

It is by the light of the Supreme Spirit, that all the worlds are lighted, and the minds of all are enlighted. But the ignorant are immerged in the ocean of ignorance, and nourish their bodies only in disregard of their souls.
