Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam · Text 11.22.31
Who is speaking and story frame
दृग् रूपमार्कं वपुरत्र रन्ध्रे
परस्परं सिध्यति य: स्वत: खे ।
आत्मा यदेषामपरो य आद्य:
स्वयानुभूत्याखिलसिद्धसिद्धि: ॥ ३१ ॥
dṛg rūpam ārkaṁ vapur atra randhre
parasparaṁ sidhyati yaḥ svataḥ khe
ātmā yad eṣām aparo ya ādyaḥ
svayānubhūtyākhila-siddha-siddhiḥ
Sight, visible form and the reflected image of the sun within the aperture of the eye all work together to reveal one another. But the original sun standing in the sky is self-manifested. Similarly, the Supreme Soul, the original cause of all entities, who is thus separate from all of them, acts by the illumination of His own transcendental experience as the ultimate source of manifestation of all mutually manifesting objects.
