The Vision of Śiva6.72

6.72
विरोधे दण्डघटयोर्दृष्टान्तोऽस्ति न ते क्वचित् । तेजसा तमसो यस्मान्न विनाशस्त्वयेष्यते ॥७२॥
virodhe daṇḍaghaṭayordṛṣṭānto'sti na te kvacit | tejasā tamaso yasmānna vināśastvayeṣyate
— as for opposition ; — of stick and pot ; — an example ; — there is none ; — for you ; — anywhere ; — by light ; — of darkness ; — since ; — no destruction ; — by you ; — is admitted

As for (a relation of) opposition (such as you posit) between stick and pot — you have no (valid) example for it anywhere; since the destruction of darkness by light is not admitted by you (— darkness for the Buddhist being mere absence of light, not a thing destroyed).
