The Essence of the Tantra8.61

8.61

तेन भिन्नक्रमनिरूपणम् अपि रौरवादिषु शास्त्रेषु अविरुद्धं मन्तव्यं तद् एव तु भोग्यसामान्यं प्रक्षोभगतं गुणतत्त्वम्

Transliteration (IAST)

tena bhinnakramanirūpaṇam api rauravādiṣu śāstreṣu aviruddhaṃ mantavyaṃ tad eva tu bhogyasāmānyaṃ prakṣobhagataṃ guṇatattvam

— the description of a divergent sequence ; — in the Raurava and other scriptures ; — not contradictory ; — the universal object of experience ; — in a state of agitation ; — the principle of the qualities (guṇas)

Therefore the description of a divergent sequence in the Raurava and other scriptures should also be regarded as non-contradictory. And that very universal object of experience, in a state of agitation, is the principle of the qualities (guṇatattva).
