मुनिरुवाच ।
जायते भाति कचति घटादि जगदादि च ।
इति द्वैतोपतप्तानां प्रलापः कल्पनात्मकः ॥ १५ ॥

muniruvāca |
jāyate bhāti kacati ghaṭādi jagadādi ca |
iti dvaitopataptānāṃ pralāpaḥ kalpanātmakaḥ || 15 ||

The sage replied:—Know that creation is expressed by the words, viz. jayati is born, bhati appeareth, and kachati shineth; and are applied indiscriminately to all material things, as pots and pictures ([Sanskrit: ghata pata]) as well as to the world also;all these words are used to express a duality (or something different as proceeding from Unity), by men whose brains are heated with dualism, or the notion of a duality.
