दृश्यानुभवसत्यात्म न सद्भावे विलासि तत् ।
कटकत्वं यथा हेम्नि तथा ब्रह्मणि संस्थितम् ॥ ३२ ॥

dṛśyānubhavasatyātma na sadbhāve vilāsi tat |
kaṭakatvaṃ yathā hemni tathā brahmaṇi saṃsthitam || 32 ||

The conception of phenomenals as real, cannot make them real, any more than the appearance of a golden bracelet, can make it gold, or the phenomenals appearing in Brahma, can identify themselves with Brahma himself.
