लघुतत्त्वस्फोट: लोकप्रकाशनपरः सवितुर्यथा यो वस्तुप्रमित्यभिमुखः सहजप्रकाशः ।। सोऽयं तवोल्लसति कारकचक्रचर्चाचित्रोऽप्यकर्बुररसप्रसरः सुबुद्धे ॥५॥ lokaprakāśunaparaḥ savitur yatha yo

citro 'py akarbburarasaprasaraḥ Subuddhe 1/5// O Subuddhi ! (O Sumati !) This innate light of yours, which has turned its face towards the cognition of the self, unfalteringly illuminates the whole world, as does the sun. Although variegated from (the point of view of) usage of the cycle of instrumentalities (i. e. the six kārakas: agent, etc., it nevertheless) shines forth as being the fully expanded, unvariegated essence of unified consciousness). (5) [5]
एकं प्रकाशकमुशन्त्यपरं प्रकाश्यमन्यत्प्रकाशकमपीश तथा प्रकाश्यम् । त्वं न प्रकाशक इहासि न च प्रकाश्यः पद्मप्रभ स्वयमसि प्रकट: प्रकाशः ॥६॥

Padmaprabha svayam asi prakațaḥ prakāśaḥ 116/1 O Padmaprabha ! It is maintained (from the conventional point of view) that one (quality, namely bliss (sukha] ) is self-luminous (because it is experienced directly), that another (quality, namely energy) must be illuminated (by knowledge), and that some further quality, namely knowledge) is both illuminator (i. e, it illuminates objects) and thing illuminated (i. e. it illuminates itself). But (from the non-conventional point of view) you are neither illuminator nor thing illuminated, (for you transcend the cycle of instrumentalities : agent, action, etc.), And yet, (looked at from the point of view of non-distinction between quality and substance), you are yourself manifest light. (6) [6]
