Vijñāna Bhairava (विज्ञान भैरव)
यैरेव पूज्यते द्रव्यैस् तर्प्यते वा परापरः ।
यश् चैव पूजकः सर्वः स एवैकः क्व पूजनम् yair eva pūjyate dravyais tarpyate vā parāparaḥ |
yaś caiva pūjakaḥ sarvaḥ sa evaikaḥ kva pūjanam
The line
By which very substances one is worshipped, or the supreme-and-lower is satisfied, and who the worshipper is: all that is one. Where, then, is the worship?
नेपालीमा
जुन द्रव्यले पूजा हुन्छ, वा परापर तृप्त हुन्छन्, र पूजक जो हो, त्यो सबै एक हो। पूजन कहाँ छ?
Where it sits
The question of 16, kaḥ pūjyaḥ (कः पूज्यः), comes to kva pūjanam (क्व पूजनम्). Worshipper, worshipped, and the substances are one.
Split: yaiḥ (यैः) + eva (एव) + pūjyate (पूज्यते) + dravyaiḥ (द्रव्यैः) + tarpyate (तर्प्यते) + vā (वा) + parāparaḥ (परापरः) + yaḥ (यः) + ca (च) + eva (एव) + pūjakaḥ (पूजकः) + sarvaḥ (सर्वः) + saḥ (सः) + eva (एव) + ekaḥ (एकः) + kva (क्व) + pūjanam (पूजनम्)

The phrases
The substances by which one is worshipped, or by which the supreme-and-lower is satisfied, and the worshipper: all that is one. Where is worship?
Sanskrit in this line
kva (क्व) asks for a place. If the three are one, the place of a worship between them is the question.
Say it back
Say what the verse says is one, and the question it asks.
