Vedantasara - Verse 175

Sanskrit

तदुक्तम् - “फलव्याप्यत्वमेवास्य शास्त्रकृद्भिर्निवारितम् । ब्रह्मण्यज्ञाननाशाय वृत्तिव्याप्तिरपेक्षिता ॥” इति (पञ्चदशी ६.९०)

Swami Nikhilananda's Translation

Thus it has been said: “The authors of the scriptures have refuted the idea that the individual Consciousness can manifest the Brahman. But they admit that the Brahman associated with ignorance is brought into contact with the mental states only for the purpose of dispelling ignorance regarding It” (Panchadasi VI-90).
