न चानादि निराभासं निराकारं चिदम्बरम् ।
दृशः कारणमन्यस्याः क्वचिद्भवितुमर्हति ॥ ३३ ॥

na cānādi nirābhāsaṃ nirākāraṃ cidambaram |
dṛśaḥ kāraṇamanyasyāḥ kvacidbhavitumarhati || 33 ||

The One that has no beginning nor end; nor has any indication of itself; that is formless and is of the manner of the intellectual vacuum only, can never become the cause of the visible and material creation.
