एवं प्रवर्तितमिदं महच्चक्रमिदं चिरम् ।
नच प्रवर्तितं किंचिन्न च शीघ्रं च नो चिरम् ॥ ९ ॥

evaṃ pravartitamidaṃ mahaccakramidaṃ ciram |
naca pravartitaṃ kiṃcinna ca śīghraṃ ca no ciram || 9 ||

Thus the great sphere of universe, is no other than the unbounded sphere of intellect; and they are nothing now done or made, or ever created before.
