Sanskrit: त्रयमेवं भवेन्मिथ्या गुणत्रयविनिर्मितम्।  अस्य द्रष्टा गुणातीतो नित्यो ह्येकश्चिदात्मकः।   
English:  Thus all the three states are unreal inasmuch as they are the creation of the three Gunas; but their witness (the reality behind them) is, beyond all Gunas, eternal, one, and is Consciousness itself.
