श्रीमदमतचन्द्रविरचितः
You “water” the "creeper” of your own extraordinary knowledge [kevalajñāna) by means of the stream” of extremely profound and infinite intuition. You know your self by (the power of that) self (alone, a self which) extends into the three times and is not knowable by others (who are not omniscient). (19) [144]
अनन्तशः खण्डितमात्मनो महः प्रपिण्डयन्नात्ममहिम्नि निर्भरम् । त्वमात्मनि व्यापतशक्तिरुन्मिषन्ननेकधाऽऽत्मानमिमं विपश्यसि ॥२०॥
anantaśaḥ khanditam ätmano mahaḥ
prapindayann ātmamahimni nirbharam / tvam ātmani vyāpstasaktir unmișann
anekadhātmānam imam vipaśyasi |/20//
Although the light [kevala-jñāna) of the self is infinitely divided (by knowing infinite objects), you totally unify it within your own majesty (by knowing your self). Your infinite energy operates within your being, and you know your soul, shining with manifold nature (i.e. unified as well as diversified). (20) [145]
प्रमातमेयाद्यविभिन्नवैभवं प्रमैकमात्रं जिन भावमाश्रितः । अगाधगम्भीर निजांसु(शु) मालिनी मनागपि स्वां न जहासि तीक्ष्णताम् ॥२१॥

pramaikamātram jina bhāvam āśritaḥ / agādhagambhira nijāms(s)umālinim
manäg api svām na jahāsi tikşnatām //21//
O Profound and Unfathomable Jina! The splendour (of your omniscience) is not divided by (such) distinctions as "knower" and "thing known," for you have attained to the state which is nothing but pure cognition. (Nevertheless), you do not even slightly abandon the sharpness of your streaming rays of knowledge, (by which objects are known). (21) [146]
अनन्तरूपस्पृशि शान्ततेजसि स्फुटौजसि प्रस्फुटतस्तवात्मनि । चिदेकतासङ कलिताः स्फुरन्त्यमूः समन्ततीक्ष्णानुभवाः स्वशक्तयः ॥२२॥
