pratyaktā parabhāvaś cāpy upādhī kartṛkarmanoḥ
tayoḥ śrutiviśeṣeṇa vācakau madhyamottamau //

sad asad vāpi caitanyam etābhyām avagamyate
caitanyabhāge prathamaḥ puruṣo na tu vartate //

budhijānāticitibhiḥ prathame puruṣe sati
samjñānārthair na caitanya syopayogaḥ prakāśyate //

saṃbodhanārthaḥ sarvatra madhyame kaiś cid iṣyate
tathā saṃbodhane sarvāṃ prathamāṃ yuṣmado viduḥ //

saṃbodhanaṃ na loke 'sti vidhātavyena vastunā
svāhendraśatrur vardhasva yathā rājā bhaveti ca //

yuṣmadarthasya siddhatvān niyatā cādyudāttatā
yuṣmadaḥ prathamāntasya paraś cen na padād asau //
