'Fashioning' means establishing oneself through explaining them; for otherwise, those \[verses\] could not be instruments \[of that fashioning\]. There is the scripture: 'He who knows that shall be the father's father.' / 'Three steps are deposited in secret places; he who knows that shall be the father's father.' 'Though they are female, they have spoken to me of them as male; he who has eyes sees, the blind does not discern. / The wise son, he has understood these; he who fully understands them shall be the father's father.' - [Previous: 11\_24](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.dvaita.sarvamula.karmanirnaya~en-mt.11_24) - [Next: 11\_26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.dvaita.sarvamula.karmanirnaya~en-mt.11_26) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.dvaita.sarvamula.karmanirnaya~en-mt.11_25](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.dvaita.sarvamula.karmanirnaya~en-mt.11_25) · Pramāṇa
