Sanskrit Text

यदमूर्त्यसृजद्व्यक्तं तत्तन्मूर्त्यधितिष्ठति चतुर्विंशतिमो व्यक्तो ह्यमूर्तः पञ्चविंशकः

English Translation

Since that which is destructible has caused all this that is Manifest, therefore, all this is gifted with form. The twenty-fourth, which is Nature, is said to lord over all this. The twentyfifth, which is Vishnu, is formless and, therefore, cannot be said to lord over the universe.
