मुनिरुवाच ।
अकारणक एवायं सर्ग आदौ प्रवर्तते ।
समस्तकारणाभावाद्यतः सर्गात्मचिन्नभः ॥ ३३ ॥

muniruvāca |
akāraṇaka evāyaṃ sarga ādau pravartate |
samastakāraṇābhāvādyataḥ sargātmacinnabhaḥ || 33 ||

Whenever the world appears in any form, whether of a gross or subtile nature, as in the states of our waking or dreaming; both these forms of the interior or exterior worlds, are to be known as the reflection of the ideal one imprinted in the intellect.
