ei mata pratisūtre sahajārtha chāḍiyā
gauṇārtha vyākhyā kare kalpanā kariyā
ei mata - like this; prati-sūtre - in every sūtra, or aphorism, of the Vedānta-sūtra; sahaja-artha - the clear, simple meaning; chāḍiyā - giving up; gauṇa-artha - indirect meaning; vyākhyā - explanation; kare - he makes; kalpanā kariyā - by imagination.
Unfortunately, the Śaṅkarite interpretation has covered almost the entire world. Therefore there is a great need to present the original, easily understood natural import of the Vedic literature. We have therefore begun by presenting Bhagavad-gītā As It Is, and we propose to present all the Vedic literature in terms of the direct meaning of its words.
