अतश्चिद्व्योममात्रात्म परमाकाशनामकम् ।
स्फारं वेदनमेवेदं कचत्यस्ति कुतो जगत् ॥ १४ ॥

ataścidvyomamātrātma paramākāśanāmakam |
sphāraṃ vedanamevedaṃ kacatyasti kuto jagat || 14 ||

Therefore the divine soul, is of the form of an intellectual vacuum, and is a void as the transcendent air; it is full with the light of its intelligence, and having no shadow of the gross world in it.
