Devanagari script

साक्षात्समरसेनैव देहमध्ये स्मरेच्छिवम् एकीभावं समेत्यैवं तत्र यद्रससम्भवम्

Transliteration

sākṣātsamarasenaiva dehamadhye smarecchivam ekībhāvaṃ sametyaivaṃ tatra yadrasasambhavam

Translation

Pela identidade imediata e indivisa (samarasa), deve-se recordar Śiva no próprio corpo. Tendo assim entrado na unidade (ekībhāva), qualquer essência de bem-aventurança (rasa) que ali nasça—saiba-se que é o surgir da consciência de Śiva, na qual o Paśu (alma) se move rumo ao Pati (Senhor) ao afrouxar os laços (pāśa).
