ब्रह्म प्रोद्भूय मृत्वा च दृश्यानुभवरूपि च ।
चिन्मात्रमजरं शान्तमेकमेवामलं स्थितम् ॥ २१ ॥

brahma prodbhūya mṛtvā ca dṛśyānubhavarūpi ca |
cinmātramajaraṃ śāntamekamevāmalaṃ sthitam || 21 ||

Brahma in its exoteric sense, is both the production as well as the destruction of the world, and equally alike its visible form and its notion also; but being viewed in its esoteric light, it [is] only of the nature of the pure Intellect, and the One alone, that is for ever calm and quiet and undecaying in itself.
