स साकारो निराकार इति शब्दार्थकल्पना ।
खपुष्पवदसद्रूपा न संभवति तद्विदाम् ॥ ३२ ॥

sa sākāro nirākāra iti śabdārthakalpanā |
khapuṣpavadasadrūpā na saṃbhavati tadvidām || 32 ||

Whether He is formless or fictile, bodiless or embodied, is the verbal disquisition of the ignorant only at all times; whereas it is well known to the learned, that any supposititious form of Him, is as unreal as the potentiality of a sky flower growing in empty air.
