यस्तु चिन्मात्रगगनं सर्वमित्येव बोधवान् ।
द्वैतेन बोध्यते नेह सोऽङ्ग तिष्ठति केवलः ॥ २१ ॥

yastu cinmātragaganaṃ sarvamityeva bodhavān |
dvaitena bodhyate neha so'ṅga tiṣṭhati kevalaḥ || 21 ||

It is the vacuity of the Intellect, that has the knowledge of everything; nor is there any other principle of understanding beside the intellect, which ever subsists by itself.
