पद्मलीला जगदिव प्रकचन्ति जगन्ति यत् ।
चिन्मात्राद्ब्रह्मणः स्वस्मादन्यानि न मनागपि ॥ ५५ ॥
padmalīlā jagadiva prakacanti jaganti yat ,
cinmātrādbrahmaṇaḥ svasmādanyāni na manāgapi 55
55. padmalīlā jagat iva prakacanti jaganti yat
cinmātrāt brahmaṇaḥ svasmāt anyāni na manāk api
55. yat jaganti padmalīlā jagat iva prakacanti,
(tatas) te (jaganti) svasmāt cinmātrāt brahmaṇaḥ manāk api anyāni na (bhavanti).
55. Because the worlds (jagat) blossom forth like the playful unfolding of a lotus (padmalīlā), and as if they were the very world itself manifesting, they are not in the slightest different from Brahman (brahman), which is pure consciousness (cinmātra), from its own essence.
