क्व द्वैतं क्व च वा द्वेषः क्व रागादि तु कथ्यताम् ।
सर्वं शिवमनाद्यन्तं परो बोध इति स्मृतः ॥ २८ ॥

kva dvaitaṃ kva ca vā dveṣaḥ kva rāgādi tu kathyatām |
sarvaṃ śivamanādyantaṃ paro bodha iti smṛtaḥ || 28 ||

Say therefore, where is there a duality, and what object is there deserving your amity or enmity, when all this totality is but one infinite Deity, and known as the transcendent understanding.
