स्वानुभूतिः प्रकाशोऽस्य केवलं व्योमरूपिणः ।
योऽन्तरस्ति स तेनैव नत्वन्येनानुभूयते ॥ १७ ॥

svānubhūtiḥ prakāśo'sya kevalaṃ vyomarūpiṇaḥ |
yo'ntarasti sa tenaiva natvanyenānubhūyate || 17 ||

The light of the vacuous Brahma is an internal perception of the soul, and is only felt and perceived within one's self, and never externally by any body; nor is this spiritual light ever clouded by any mist or darkness of temporal objects.
