Paragraph 42

“যাঁরই নিত্য, তাঁরই লীলা (phenomenal world), যাঁরই লীলা তাঁরই নিত্য (Absolute), যিনি ঈশ্বর বলে গোচর হন, তিনিই জীবজগৎ হয়েছেন। যে জেনেছে সে দেখে যে তিনিই সব হয়েছেন। বাপ,—মা ছেলে, প্রতিবেশী, জীব জন্তু, ভাল মন্দ, শুচি অশুচি সমস্ত।

In plain words

"He whose is the Eternal, His too is the Lila (phenomenal world); He whose is the Lila, His too is the Eternal (Absolute). He who is apprehended as God has Himself become the jivas and the universe. He who has known sees that He alone has become everything. Father—mother, son, neighbour, beast and creature, good and bad, pure and impure, everything.
