svacchatvam avikāritvaṁ śāntatvam iti cetasaḥ vṛttibhir lakṣaṇaṁ proktaṁ yathāpāṁ prakṛtiḥ parā
Translation
After the manifestation of the mahat-tattva, these features appear simultaneously. As water in its natural state, before coming in contact with earth, is clear, sweet and unruffled, so the characteristic traits of pure consciousness are complete serenity, clarity, and freedom from distraction.
