Rudra’s Cosmic Dance and the Recognition of Rudra–Nārāyaṇa Unity (Īśvara-gītā Continuation)
यदन्तरा सर्वमिदं विभाति यदव्ययं निर्मलमेकरूपम् / किमप्यचिन्त्यं तव रूपमेतत् तदन्तरा यत्प्रतिभाति तत्त्वम्
yadantarā sarvamidaṃ vibhāti yadavyayaṃ nirmalamekarūpam / kimapyacintyaṃ tava rūpametat tadantarā yatpratibhāti tattvam
যার অন্তরে এই সমগ্র জগৎ প্রকাশিত হয়—যা অব্যয়, নির্মল ও একরূপ—সেটাই তোমার রূপ, সত্যই অচিন্ত্য। তার বাইরে কোনো তত্ত্বই সত্যরূপে প্রকাশ পায় না।
