योगवासिष्ठः yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-7, chapter-175, verse-46

द्वित्वैकत्वादिकलना नेह काचन विद्यते ।
सत्तामात्रं च दृगियमितश्चेदलमीक्ष्यते ॥ ४६ ॥

dvitvaikatvādikalanā neha kācana vidyate ,
sattāmātraṃ ca dṛgiyamitaścedalamīkṣyate 46

46. dvitva-ekatva-ādi-kalanā na iha kācana vidyate
sattā-mātram ca dṛk iyam itaḥ cet alam īkṣyate

46. iha dvitva-ekatva-ādi-kalanā kācana na vidyate.
ca cet itaḥ sattā-mātram īkṣyate,
(tadā) iyam dṛk alam (bhavati).

46. Here (iha) no notion of duality or unity (dvitva-ekatva), etc., exists. And if mere existence (sattā-mātram) is observed from this (perspective), then this vision (dṛk iyam) is sufficient (alam)!

46. כאן אין כל תפיסה של דואליות או אחדות. הראייה הזו היא קיום טהור בלבד, ואם מביטים ממנה כראוי – די בכך.
