As to the others (i.e. external objects), let them remain active as (i.e. we accept them as being) the efficient cause of your omniscient knowledge. But here (i.e. regarding the production of a result), in truth (i.e. from the absolute point of view), an external cause (i.e. an efficient cause [nimitta-kāraṇa]) can never become an internal cause (i.e. a material cause [upādāna-kāraṇa]). You are, by yourself, distinguished (from others through your) perfected consciousness and energy, (and so you) have become the lord (i.e. the supreme teacher), a solid mass of knowledge which pervades the entire universe. (18) [443]

From the conventional point of view [vyavahara-naya], it is indeed accepted that the agent and the object are different (from each other). But since, (from the non-conventional point of view), there is no distinction (made between these two), you who are the agent are also the object. O Lord! indeed, you who produced the mass of omniscience are in reality that very mass of omniscience itself. (19) [444]

O Lord! From the point of view of non-distinction (between substance qualities,) you are (both) the substratum of your own qualities, and (qualities) which entirely pervade (your space-points), and also the aggregate of those things which are placed (upon that substratum, namely the qualities themselves). Thus, from the point of view of unity of substratum and thingsplaced-thereon, you abide in your majesty both as shining substance and as the mass of omniscience (i.e. the qualities). (20) [445]
