Vimokṣa-niścaya: Pañcaśikha’s Analysis of Aggregates, Guṇas, and Tyāga (मोक्षनिर्णयः)
Devanagari script
लोहयुक्तं यथा हेम विपक्वं न विराजते । तथापक््वकषायाख्यं विज्ञानं न प्रकाशते
Translation
كما أن الذهب المخلوط بالحديد لا يزهو بلمعانه ما لم يُنقَّ في النار، كذلك لا يتجلّى العلم/الإدراك (vijñāna) ما دامت كدورات النفس المسماة كَشايا (kaṣāya) — كالتعلّق (rāga) ونحوه — لم تُمحَ من القلب.
