श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
देशकालक्रियाद्रव्यभेदवेदनचेतसाम् ।
अज्ञानमात्रादितरा सत्ता नान्यास्ति नो पुरा ॥ ४१ ॥

ajñānamātrāditarā sattā nānyāsti no purā || 41 ||

Vasishtha replied:—Yes, because all our objective knowledge, of the distinctions of time and place and of actions and things in our minds; is the effect of our ignorance of the subjectivity of the soul, beside which there is no other substance—before the liberated spirit.
