दृश्यते तच्छिलैवैका न तु सर्गादि किंचन ।
सावस्थिता शिलैवैकरूपा निविडमण्डला ॥ १६ ॥

dṛśyate tacchilaivaikā na tu sargādi kiṃcana |
sāvasthitā śilaivaikarūpā niviḍamaṇḍalā || 16 ||

This stone alone is conspicuous to view, and there was nothing of the worlds it contained so perspicuous in it. The stone remained for ever in the same unvaried state, with all the worlds lying concealed in it.
