“The manifested world, consisting of the primary elemental substances and the rest, becomes the source of pleasure and pain to all people, only when controlled by an intelligent cause,—because it is insentient, itself a product, evanescent and so forth,—like the axe and other things; thus everything is clearly believed to be his.”—(52-53)

Kamalaśīla

Controlled by an Intelligent Cause,—i.e. controlled by a Cause which is endowed with sentience.—Thus—i.e. for the said series of reasons;—‘His’,—i.e. of God, the Cause of the entire world.—(52-53)
