For understanding the twenty-sixth, the twenty-four principles seem to Individual soul to be unreal. I have thus told you, O sinless one, according to the indications of the Shrutis the nature of the Unintelligent, and of Individual Soul, as also of that which is Pure knowledge, agreeably to the truth. Guided by the scriptures, variety and oneness are thus to be understood.
चतुर्विंशमसारं च षड्विंशस्य प्रबोधनात्। एष ह्यप्रतिबुद्धश्च बुध्यमानश्च तेऽनघ॥ प्रोक्तो बुद्धश्च तत्त्वेन यथाश्रुतिनिदर्शनात्। नानात्वैकत्वमेतावद् द्रष्टव्यं शास्त्रदर्शनात्॥
