Devanagari script
आध्यात्मिकं च यल्लिङ्गं प्रत्यक्षं यस्य नो भवेत् असौ मूढो बहिः सर्वं कल्पयित्वैव नान्यथा
Transliteration
ādhyātmikaṃ ca yalliṅgaṃ pratyakṣaṃ yasya no bhavet asau mūḍho bahiḥ sarvaṃ kalpayitvaiva nānyathā
Translation
ਜਿਸ ਨੂੰ ਆਧਿਆਤਮਿਕ ਅੰਦਰਲਾ ਲਿੰਗ ਪ੍ਰਤੱਖ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੁੰਦਾ, ਉਹ ਮੂੜ੍ਹ ਹੈ—ਉਹ ਸਭ ਕੁਝ ਬਾਹਰ ਹੀ ਕਲਪਨਾ ਕਰ ਕੇ ਮੰਨ ਲੈਂਦਾ ਹੈ; ਹੋਰਥਾਂ ਨਹੀਂ।
