एतद्बहिष्ठमन्तस्थमस्ति शब्दे न वस्तुनि ।
उपदेशाय सत्त्वानां चिद्रूपत्वाज्जगत्त्रये ॥ ६० ॥

etadbahiṣṭhamantasthamasti śabde na vastuni |
upadeśāya sattvānāṃ cidrūpatvājjagattraye || 60 ||

The words external and internal as applied to the world, are meaningless and not positive terms; there is no inside or outside of the divine soul, they are contrived to explain its different views by the intellect for the instruction of pupils.
