Verse 63 of 75
SB 7.15.63

कार्यकारणवस्त्वैक्य दर्शनं पटतन्तुवत् अवस्तुत्वाद्विकल्पस्य भावाद्वैतं तदुच्यते

kārya-kāraṇa-vastv-aikya- darśanaṁ paṭa-tantuvat avastutvād vikalpasya bhāvādvaitaṁ tad ucyate

Synonyms

kārya—the result or effect; kāraṇa—the cause; vastu—substance; aikya—oneness; darśanam—observation; paṭa—the cloth; tantu—the thread; vat—like; avastutvāt—because of being ultimately unreality; vikalpasya—of differentiation; bhāva-advaitam—the conception of oneness; tat ucyate—that is called..

Translation

When one understands that result and cause are one and that duality is ultimately unreal, like the idea that the threads of a cloth are different from the cloth itself, one reaches the conception of oneness called bhāvādvaita.
