jāyamāneṣu naśyatsu vartamāneṣu bhūriśaḥ .
evaṃ sargasahasreṣu paramāṇukaṇaṃ prati .. 57

56. [Sanskrit available] But the mind is greatly disturbed, when the worldly and spiritual thoughts, press it with equal force to both ways; and it is then, that the greater force leads it onward in either way. (There is no midway like that of the Madhyamikas between this world and the next). Gloss. The worldly and spiritual thoughts being equally forcible, they naturally struggle in the mind, and that which is of greater force overcomes the other.

57. [Sanskrit available] Such is the case with all the myriads of beings, whether they are living, dead or to come to life; and the same accidents take place in the particles of all human minds (like the concussions of atomic forces).
