अहन्ताखादिताद्यात्मविदः प्रसरणं जगत् ।
अम्भोद्रवप्रसरणं यथावर्तादिवेष्टनम् ॥ ६ ॥

ahantākhāditādyātmavidaḥ prasaraṇaṃ jagat |
ambhodravaprasaraṇaṃ yathāvartādiveṣṭanam || 6 ||

It is well known to the spiritualist, that the egoism of ourselves and the materialism of the world, are but dilations of the intellect; as the currents and curlings of streams in eddies are but dilations of water.
