Verse 8·20

The eternal beyond creation and dissolution

Verse

परस्तस्मात्तु भावोऽन्यो ऽव्यक्तोऽव्यक्तात्सनातनः ।यः स सर्वेषु भूतेषु नश्यत्सु न विनश्यति ॥

parastasmāttu bhāvo’nyo ’vyakto’vyaktātsanātanaḥyaḥ sa sarveṣu bhūteṣu naśyatsu na vinaśyati

But this unmanifest is not the original divinity of the Being; there is another status of his existence, a supracosmic unmanifest beyond this cosmic non-manifestation (which is eternally self-seated, is not an opposite of this cosmic status of manifestation but far above and unlike it, changeless, eternal), not forced to perish with the perishing of all these existences.
