4.110
वर्णनेन च चैतन्यमेतावन्मनसो यदि । स्वात्मशक्तिसमावेशादमूर्तावेशता कथम् ॥११०॥
varṇanena ca caitanyametāvanmanaso yadi | svātmaśaktisamāveśādamūrtāveśatā katham
— by description ; — and ; — sentience ; — only this much ; — of the mind ; — if ; — from the entering-in of one's own power ; — the entering of the incorporeal ; — how (explained)?

And if the mind's sentience (amounts to) only this much, namely (mere) description — then (this still rests) on the entering-in of one's own (conscious) power; (otherwise) how is the entering-in of the incorporeal (into objects to be) explained?
