Shloka 8
Adhyaya 87 — Saṃsāra-viṣa-kathana: Ājñā-śakti, Māyā-bandha, and Mokṣa by Prasāda
Devanagari script
न ह्येषा प्रकृतिर्जैवी विकृतिश् च विचारतः विकारो नैव मायैषा सदसद्व्यक्तिवर्जिता
Transliteration
na hyeṣā prakṛtirjaivī vikṛtiś ca vicārataḥ vikāro naiva māyaiṣā sadasadvyaktivarjitā
Translation
Ceci n’est pas la Prakṛti née du jīva ; et, selon le juste discernement, ce n’est pas non plus une simple modification. Ce n’est même pas Māyā en tant que produit. Cela se tient au-delà de la dualité de l’être et du non-être, dépourvu de toute particularisation manifeste : ainsi est indiqué le principe transcendant de Pati (Śiva), antérieur à toute apparence.
