Sūtra translation

As the effect (the released state) is a result which is said to be none of the world, the qualities to be comprehended and contemplated in Brahman should be, (none of the world), different from those of the world.

In the text, “ The qualities of Brahman are not like those of the world; therefore only qualities not found in others (in the world) are to be contemplated in Him for the result of tfie contemplation, viz., heavenly existence is different from everything of the world ; ” the nature of the effect, viz., Mukti (release) being thus described, only the qualities that do not form part of the world's nature are to be contemplated.
