जीवत्वमिव संप्राप्ता पुर्यष्टकपदस्थिता ।
कला कलङ्ककलिता चितिराबोधनोन्मुखी ॥ १८ ॥

jīvatvamiva saṃprāptā puryaṣṭakapadasthitā |
kalā kalaṅkakalitā citirābodhanonmukhī || 18 ||

Being fond of representing the Divine Intellect in a visible form, they have stained the pure spirit with many gross forms, such as the elemental and organic body, which is enlivened by the vital spirit dwelling in it.
