Śiva-jñāna and the Non-dual Vision of a Śiva-maya Universe (शिवज्ञानम्—सर्वं शिवमयम्)
वस्तुतस्तु स्वयं सर्वं क्रमो हि भासते शुभः । अज्ञानं च मतेर्भेदो नास्त्यन्यच्च द्वयम्पुनः
vastutastu svayaṃ sarvaṃ kramo hi bhāsate śubhaḥ | ajñānaṃ ca materbhedo nāstyanyacca dvayampunaḥ
حقیقت میں سب کچھ خود ہی قائم و ثابت ہے؛ اشیاء کا مبارک نظم خود بخود روشن ہوتا ہے۔ جو جہالت اور رائے کا اختلاف دکھائی دیتا ہے وہ دراصل کچھ اور نہیں—پھر بھی محض خیال کردہ دوئی ہی ہے۔
