No debe hacerse división alguna entre esos grandes seres que comparten un solo cuerpo esencial. Ignorante es quien, con disputas de exégesis, causalidad y lógica sutil, pretende fabricar diferencias entre ellos.

Tirtha: Revā tīrtha-samūha (contextual)
Type: river
Scene: Sages or disputants attempt to split the unity of the great deities through logic; the teaching declares them one-bodied, urging non-division and harmony.
