Atma Upanishad: Verse 4
न च विद्या न चाविद्या न जगच्च न चापरम् । सत्यत्वेन जगद्भानं संसारस्य प्रवर्तकम्॥४॥
न । च । विद्या । न । च । अविद्या । न । जगत् । च । न । च । अपरम् । सत्यत्वेन । जगत्-भानम् । संसारस्य । प्रवर्तकम् ॥ ४ ॥
na ca vidyā na cāvidyā na jagac ca na cāparam | satyatvena jagadbhānaṃ saṃsārasya pravartakam ||4||
ไม่มีทั้งวิทยา ไม่มีทั้งอวิทยา; ไม่มีทั้งโลก และไม่มีสิ่งอื่นใด. การปรากฏของโลกเมื่อถือว่าเป็นจริง นั่นเองเป็นเหตุให้สังสาระดำเนินไป
There is neither knowledge nor ignorance, neither the world nor anything other. The appearance of the world taken as real is what sets saṃsāra in motion.
- Resolved: cāvidyā → ca avidyā
- jagacc → jagat ca
- cāparam → ca aparam
- jagadbhānam (compound) retained as jagat+bhāna
