इस संसारवृक्षका जैसा रूप देखनेमें आता है, वैसा यहाँ (विचार करनेपर) मिलता नहीं; क्योंकि इसका न तो आदि है, न अन्त है और न स्थिति ही है। अनुभव तब स्पष्ट होता है जब उसे किसी एक घटना का आकस्मिक संयोग न मानकर एक नियम की तरह देखा जाए। यह पंक्ति उसी नियम को इस प्रसंग में रखती है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
