The correspondence is complete, and the whole celestial chart has been transposed inward: half-years, new moon, equinoxes, both eclipses. Let us now say something of this construction as a whole, for it has ended and there will be no other occasion. Its design is not hard to state: a person need not go outward. Everything one goes to the sky and the calendar for is within oneself; and the work performed outside can be performed within.
This design is one of the most fruitful in Indian thought and has given rise to a great deal. From it too will come the inner holy places, of which the next line will speak. Let us say what is good in it. It frees one from circumstance: from the calendar, from place, from the means needed for a rite. A person who has everything within does not depend on where he is or when.
Let us say too what it lacks, and this matters more. In such a construction no other remains. Everything is reduced to one person and his own arrangement; and his work is work upon himself, in which no one is addressed.
The Vaishnava side sets against this not an argument, but a circumstance already discussed. The whole inner arrangement of a person, however it is described, does not know how to love: it is not the passage or the breath that loves, but the one who makes use of them. And the moment love enters the discourse, a second at once appears; and with him returns everything that had been abolished — place, and time, and rite, but no longer as conditions, rather as ways of being together.
