यदा तु तस्मिन्न् एव प्रमातृविश्रान्तिगते प्रमातुः पूर्णतौन्मुख्यात् तद्द्वारेण पूर्णतोन्मुखतया भानं तदा तुर्यावस्था सा च रूपं दृशाहम् इत्य् एवंविधम् अंशत्रयम् उत्तीर्य पश्यामीति अनुपायिका प्रमातृता स्वातन्त्र्यसारा नैकट्यमध्यत्वदूरत्वैः प्रमातृप्रमाणप्रमेयताभिषेकं ददती तदवस्थात्रयानुग्राहकत्वात् त्रिभेदा

Transliteration (IAST)

yadā tu tasminn eva pramātṛviśrāntigate pramātuḥ pūrṇataunmukhyāt taddvāreṇa pūrṇatonmukhatayā bhānaṃ tadā turyāvasthā sā ca rūpaṃ dṛśāham ity evaṃvidham aṃśatrayam uttīrya paśyāmīti anupāyikā pramātṛtā svātantryasārā naikaṭyamadhyatvadūratvaiḥ pramātṛpramāṇaprameyatābhiṣekaṃ dadatī tadavasthātrayānugrāhakatvāt tribhedā

— when (the appearing) has come to rest in the perceiver ; — from the orientation toward fullness ; — as oriented toward fullness ; — the fourth state (turya) ; — the object, the perceiving, the 'I' ; — having transcended the triad of aspects ; — the perceiverhood that is means-free (requiring no method) ; — whose essence is autonomy ; — by nearness, intermediacy, and distance ; — the consecration into perceiverhood, means-hood, and objecthood ; — bestowing ; — because it favors (graces) that triad of states ; — threefold (in its divisions)

But when, in that very state come to rest in the perceiver, the appearing is — through the perceiver's orientation toward fullness, and by way of that — oriented toward fullness, then it is the fourth state. And it is the means-free perceiverhood, whose essence is autonomy, which, having transcended such a triad of aspects as "I see the object by the perceiving," beholds it; bestowing, by nearness, intermediacy, and distance, the consecration into perceiverhood, means-hood, and objecthood; and, because it graces that triad of states, it is itself threefold.
