Due to the independence of [human] will, if the Veda depends on conventions based on that [will] in expressing its meaning, it would not express the desired meaning due to lack of constraint; but when the Veda would convey meaning independently of that [human will], then it would be valid as a means of knowledge, because it would quickly generate understanding of its own meaning without regard for human interpretation, and because even when interpreted differently, like the eye and other [sense organs], it would not abandon its natural expression of its own meaning
