Mandukya Karika 3.26

Sanskrit Verse

स एष नेति नेतीति व्याख्यातं निह्नुते यतः ।
सर्वमग्राह्यभावेन हेतुनाजं प्रकाशते ॥ २६ ॥

Transliteration

sa eṣa neti netīti vyākhyātaṃ nihnute yataḥ |
sarvamagrāhyabhāvena hetunājaṃ prakāśate || 26 ||

Translation

As the Śruti passage, “It is not this, not this” on account of the incomprehensibility of Ātman, negates all (dualistic) ideas described (as the means for the attainment of Ātman), therefore the birthless (Ātman alone) exists (and not any duality).
