The Vision of Śiva5.31

5.31
विभुत्वेनेन्द्रियाणां ते किं वृथैव शरीरता । चक्षुषा चेदर्पितं मे मनसात्मन्यथार्प्यते ॥३१॥
vibhutvenendriyāṇāṃ te kiṃ vṛthaiva śarīratā | cakṣuṣā cedarpitaṃ me manasātmanyathārpyate
— by reason of (the self's) all-pervadingness ; — of the sense-organs ; — for you ; — is it then quite in vain? ; — the embodiment (apparatus of body) ; — by the eye ; — if (you say) ; — conveyed ; — to me ; — by the mind ; — to the self ; — then ; — is conveyed

By reason of the self's all-pervadingness, is the bodily apparatus of the sense-organs for you quite in vain? If (you say) it is conveyed to me by the eye, and then conveyed to the self by the mind (— this only multiplies the difficulty).
