Verse 561

Tap any word for its meaning.

US-P18.151ab ।US-P18.151cd ॥

In plain words

Whatever can be grasped — form, and all the rest — must have a grasper other than itself. A thought works the same way: what lights it into view is other than it, like a lamp.

Close to the Sanskrit

Just as of form and the rest there would be another, the apprehender, because of their being apprehensible, so of the cognition there would be another, because of its being the manifester, and like a lamp.
