ज्ञानरूपतयाबाह्यं बाह्यं चानुभवात्तथा ।
सत्यरूपमतः सत्यां विद्धि बाह्यार्थरूपताम् ॥ ३ ॥

jñānarūpatayābāhyaṃ bāhyaṃ cānubhavāttathā |
satyarūpamataḥ satyāṃ viddhi bāhyārtharūpatām || 3 ||

The world subsisting in our knowledge or consciousness of it, is same with its internal knowledge, and not as existing externally or out of our consciousness; and although it appears to be situated out of it, like the features of a picture appearing as prominent above their base, it is on a level with its plane. The original figure being contained in the substratum of our inner knowledge, the outward appearance is to be likewise known as the same also.
