चिद्रूपं सूर्यलक्षाभं समस्ताभासभासनम् ।
अन्तस्थचित्प्रकाशं स्वमहंतासारमाश्रयेत् ॥ ७ ॥

cidrūpaṃ sūryalakṣābhaṃ samastābhāsabhāsanam |
antasthacitprakāśaṃ svamahaṃtāsāramāśrayet || 7 ||

He is of the form of the intellect, the source of all light and glorious as millions of suns; He is the light of the inward intellect, and the receptacle (origin) of egoism and tuism.
