________________ 210 sigaya-rafarfaa: The powers of your (omniscience) are manifest on every side, clear and brilliant with infinite rays (of knowledge), brought forth through the firm, unified, and totally unshakeable application of consciousness. In shining forth, (these powers) pervade the entire universe, resting upon the seqential (modes of all objects). But (from the non-conventional point of view, they) rest in you alone, for their "speed" (i.e. activity) has been forcefully contained (therein).

You are boundless, an embodiment of fully manifest intuition and knowledge. But you do have limits when seen from the point of view of your space-points, (which are finite). Nowhere is your limit perceived when you are (viewed as being) the embodiment of applied consciousness (i.e. omniscience). But in this world, the (very) expanse of (your) consciousness which internalizes the entire universe (as object), itself points to (the fact that you) possess boundaries, for the excellent and infinite activities of this expanse (of consciousness) are restricted within (finite) space-points [pradeśa]. (i.e. The number of objects is infinite, whereas the space-points of the soul are myriad but finite.)
