स्थितोऽस्मि यत्र देशोऽसावित्यद्यैषा प्रकल्पना ।
तदा त्वहं चिदुन्मेषमात्रात्तन्मात्रकारणम् ॥ २४ ॥

sthito'smi yatra deśo'sāvityadyaiṣā prakalpanā |
tadā tvahaṃ cidunmeṣamātrāttanmātrakāraṇam || 24 ||

The place where I am situated, is said to be my location; and when I think or affirm any thing, that I say the present time; and as long I feel the twinkling of my intellect, so long do I know myself as the intellectual cause of my action.
