sūnyo 'nyaśūnyavibhavo 'py asi naikapürṇaḥ / tvam naikapūrņamahimā 'pi sadaika eva
kaḥ Sitaleti caritam tava mätum îşte 1/101/ Although devoid (of passions, etc.), you are complete (with your own qualities and modes). Although (thus) complete, you are devoid of the qualities and modes) cf others. Although (thus) devoid of others, you are filled with many (objects, which are reflected in your kncwledge). Although endowed with the greatness that derives from being (thus) filled with others, you remain always One (i. e. unified consciousness). Thus, O Lord Šitala, who can measure your (profound nature)? (10) [10]

Although (thus) born, you are indeed not born (i. e. from the substance point of view, you have always existed). O Treasure of wonders! You illuminate those who ask themselves "why is this ?" (with regard to your wondrous nature). (11) [11]
