चिद्व्योम भाति देहाभं सर्गादौ न तु देहकः ।
अकारणत्वादसतश्चिदुदेतीति चिन्त्यताम् ॥ २५ ॥

cidvyoma bhāti dehābhaṃ sargādau na tu dehakaḥ |
akāraṇatvādasataścidudetīti cintyatām || 25 ||

The vacuum of the intellect shines forth as the substratum of all bodies, but without a body of its own in the beginning of creation; because nothing having any prior material cause for its corporeal existence, it is the intellect alone which must be understood, to exhibit all formal existence in its vacuous space and to our ignorance.
