Sanskrit: उपाधिसंबन्धवशात्परात्मा ह्युपाधिधर्माननुभाति तद्गुणः । ोविकारानविकारिवन्हिवत् सदैकरूपोऽपि परः स्वभावात् 
English:  Owing to Its connection with the super-impositions, the Supreme Self, even thou naturally perfect (transcending Nature) and eternally unchanging, assumes the qualities of the superimpositions and appears to act just as they do – like the changeless fire assuming the modifications of the iron which it turns red-hot.
