दृश्यदर्शनसंबन्धस्पन्देनेयं जगद्गतिः ।
स्फुरत्यालोककुड्यादिसंगजा वर्णधीरिव ॥ २० ॥

dṛśyadarśanasaṃbandhaspandeneyaṃ jagadgatiḥ |
sphuratyālokakuḍyādisaṃgajā varṇadhīriva || 20 ||

The action of the relation between the vision and visibles (i.e. the mutual of the eyesight and outward objects on one another), causes the appearance of the world and its course; as the relation that there exists between the solar rays and formations of things, makes them appear in various colours to the eye.
