Verses on the Recognition of the Lord12.19

12.19
न च युक्तं जडस्यैवं भेदाभेदविरोधतः आभासभेदाद् एकत्र चिदात्मनि तु युज्यते ॥१९॥
na ca yuktaṃ jaḍasyaivaṃ bhedābhedavirodhataḥ ābhāsabhedād ekatra cidātmani tu yujyate
— and not ; — tenable, possible ; — for an insentient thing ; — thus, in this way ; — because of the contradiction between difference and non-difference ; — from the difference of appearances ; — in the one ; — whose self is consciousness ; — but ; — it is tenable

And this is not tenable for an insentient thing, because of the contradiction between difference and non-difference; but in the one (subject) whose self is consciousness, it is tenable through the difference of appearances.
