10701002c rUpam asya yathAtattvaM zRNu zravaNabhUSaNam Vasishtha replied:—It is possible rAma, for the living person to resign his false ideas and not for one that is dead and gone (because the life of a man is independent of his notions; while the notions are dependant on his life). Hear me now to expound this truth, and it will greatly please your ears:
10701003a ahamMbhAvanam evAhuH kalpanaM kalpanAvidaH The idea of one's egoism (or his personality in own person), is said to be an idealism by idealists;
note: thesetranslations make no sense at all
10701003c nabho'rthabhAvananM tasya saGMkalpatyAga ucyate but it is the conception of the signification of the word air or vacuity (which is the essence of the Deity), that is represented as the repudiation of that erroneous notion.
10701004a padArtha rasam evAhuH kalpanaM kalpanAvidaH The idealists represent the sense of all substances, as a creation of the imagination,
10701004c nabho'rthabhAvananM tasya saGMkalpatyAga ucyate while it is the idea of a pure vacuum, which they say to be the resignation of this erroneous conception.
