(200) to an extent beyond belief ambrosia of truth, flowing from the moon face of the Guru of the world, of these 'discerning ones', 'knowers of statement according to the truth, Lord !

As thus: In the passage 'down to the lamp, down to ether is of the same nature') the doctrine of eternal and non-eternal has been set forth; in the verse: 'the denotand is plural, in essence verily one's) the doctrine of universality and particularity was indicated. And in the sevennuance-scheme') the doctrine of utterable and unutterable, and the doctrine of existence and non-existence were discussed. And so there is no further trouble. This is the meaning of the verse.
