Sanskrit Original
भोज्यभोक्तृत्वसंबन्धाः प्रपत्स्यन्ते च तावुभौ। तस्मादक्षरमव्यक्तं साम्ये स्थित्वा गुणात्मकम।।
bhojyabhoktṛtvasaṃbandhāḥ prapatsyante ca tāvubhau| tasmādakṣaramavyaktaṃ sāmye sthitvā guṇātmakam||

When it becomes necessary to function, the relationship of Bhojya (One worthy of being enjoyed) and Bhoktṛtva (the state of being the enjoyer) of the two principles the Kṣetra and Kṣetrajña attains them. Therefore the unmanifest one of the nature of Guṇa remains in equilibrium and on being presided over by Kṣetrajña attains Vaiṣamya (upsetting of the equilibrium). Then the Vyakta (Manifest one) resorts to both, Kṣetra and Kṣetrajña.
