mano mahāṃstu vijñeyam ekaṃ tatkāraṇaṃ smṛtam samutpannaṃ liṅgamātraṃ kṣetrajñādhiṣṭhitaṃ hi tat
Translation
มโน (จิต) กับมหัตพึงรู้ว่าเป็นหนึ่งเดียว; นั่นแลถูกจดจำว่าเป็นเหตุปัจจัยเดียว. จากนั้นเกิดขึ้นเพียง ‘ลิงคะ-มาตระ’ คือเครื่องหมายอันละเอียดเท่านั้น และสิ่งนั้นก็อยู่ภายใต้การกำกับของกษेत्रชญะ—ปติศิวะผู้สถิตภายใน.
