मध्यं माध्यमिकानां च सर्वं सुसमचेतसाम् ॥ २० ॥

ātmātmanastadviduṣāṃ nairātmyaṃ tādṛśātmanām |
madhyaṃ mādhyamikānāṃ ca sarvaṃ susamacetasām || 20 ||

He was the same with the soul of souls of the Psychologists, and as no soul of Physicists; he was similar to the Midst or Midmost of the Madhyamikas (i.e. having no beginning nor end), and the All of the even-minded Pantheists.
