Adhyaya 84 — The Gods’ Hymn after the Slaying of Mahishasura and the Goddess’ Boon
हेतुः समस्तजगतां त्रिगुणापि दोषैर् न ज्ञायसे हरिहरादिभिरप्यपारा । सर्वाश्रयाखिलमिदं जगदंशभूतम् अव्याकृता हि परमा प्रकृतिस्त्वमाद्या ॥
hetuḥ samastajagatāṃ triguṇāpi doṣair na jñāyase hariharādibhirapyapārā / sarvāśrayākhilamidaṃ jagadaṃśabhūtam avyākṛtā hi paramā prakṛtistvamādyā
汝は一切世界の原因。三つのグナにより相を示しながらも、過失あるものとは知られず、ハリ（ヴィシュヌ）やハラ（シヴァ）ならびに他の神々にさえ測り知れぬ深奥である。汝は万有の帰依処、この全世界はただ汝の一分にすぎない。汝は不顕現にして至上、原初のプラクリティである。
