Its will is pure consciousness (肠颈苍尘腻迟谤补), the Unmanifest whose form is subtly manifest.

Night and day, the Yogin always sleeps in the natural [no-mind] state. For a man who remains in the pure, natural [no-mind state], there is not even the distinction of day and night, because [that] place is the bliss of mere consciousness (肠颈苍尘腻迟谤补-膩nanda), which is free from wakefulness and sleep. [...]鈥�.

So it is unattached, desireless and at peace, and as such I remain. Truly I am but pure consciousness (肠颈苍尘腻迟谤补), and the world is like a conjuror鈥檚 show [aho 肠颈苍尘腻迟谤补mev膩hamindraj膩lopama峁� jagat], so how could I imagine there is anything there to take up or reject?鈥�.
