cittvādato viśālākṣa dvitaikatve kva vā sthite 8

8. saṃvidaḥ na asti saṃvedyam svayam saṃvedyatām itā
cittvāt ataḥ viśālākṣa dvaita-ekatve kva vā sthite

8. viśālākṣa! saṃvidaḥ saṃvedyam na asti.
svayam saṃvedyatām itā.
cittvāt ataḥ dvaita-ekatve kva vā sthite?

8. For consciousness (saṃvit), there is no separate object to be perceived (saṃvedya); it has itself attained the state of being perceivable. Therefore, O broad-eyed one, since it is pure consciousness (cit), where then can duality or oneness ever be situated?
