ॐ दृश्यते तु ॐ ॥ २-१-६ ॥

But it is seen.

english translation

ॐ असदिति चेन्न प्रतिषेधमात्रत्वात् ॐ ॥ २-१-७॥

If it be said that the effect (in that case) is non-existent (before creation), then not so; for it is merely a negation (without any object to deny).

english translation

ॐ अपीतौ तद्वत्प्रसङ्गादसमञ्जसम् ॐ ॥ २-१-८॥

Since in dissolution there is the predicament of the cause becoming just like that effect, therefore this (theory that Brahman is the material cause) becomes incongruous.

english translation

ॐ न तु दृष्टान्तभावात् ॐ ॥ २-१-९॥

But that cannot be so on account of the existence of supporting illustration.

english translation

ॐ स्वपक्षदोषाच्च ॐ ॥ २-१-१०॥

And because the defects cling to your own point of view.
