Thus the twenty-ninth chapter, called "The Description of the Principle of Word and Meaning," in the earlier section of the Vāyavīya Saṃhitā, the seventh, in the glorious Śiva Mahāpurāṇa. Chapter 30.

शिवयोस्तत्त्वसम्बन्धे न दोष उपलभ्यते चरितैः प्राकृतो भावस्तयोरपि विभाव्यते

śivayostattvasambandhe na doṣa upalabhyate caritaiḥ prākṛto bhāvastayorapi vibhāvyate

In the connection of Śiva and (Śivā) at the level of reality no fault is to be found; yet by (their) deeds an ordinary, material condition is imagined of those two as well.

brahmādayo 'pi lokānāṃ sṛṣṭisthityantahetavaḥ nigrahānugrahau prāpya śivasya vaśavartinaḥ

Brahmā and the rest too, who are the causes of the creation, maintenance and end of the worlds, having obtained (the powers of) restraint and grace, are subject to Śiva's control.

śivaḥ punarna kasyāpi nigrahānugrahāspadam ato 'nāyattamaiśvaryaṃ tasyaiveti viniścitam

Śiva, on the other hand, is not the object of anyone's restraint or grace; therefore it is settled that sovereignty independent (of another) belongs to him alone.

534a yadyevamīdṛśaiśvaryaṃ tattu svātantryalakṣaṇam svabhāvasiddhaṃ caitasya mūrtimattāspadaṃ bhavet

If it is so, then such sovereignty has independence as its mark and is established by its own nature — and (yet) this would make him a locus of having a bodily form.

And a bodily form does not fit one who is independent, since it (would require) a primary cause; and since a bodily form too is an effect, its establishment would be without a cause.

It is said lightly everywhere that there is some embodied self, with parts, and that Śiva is another, partless, and that (the former) is presided over by Śiva.

mūrtyātmaiva tadā mūrtiḥ śivasyāsya bhavediti tasya mūrtau mūrtimatoḥ pārataṃtryaṃ hi niścitam

Then the embodied self itself would be the body of this Śiva; and (thus) in the case of his body, dependence of the two — body and the one possessing it — is indeed certain.

Having a body by one's own will does not establish independence, since for men that very 'own will' is of such a kind as to follow upon (past) action.

svīkartuṃ svecchayā dehaṃ hātuṃ ca prabhavantyuta brahmādayaḥ piśācāṃtāḥ kiṃ te karmātivartinaḥ
