काकतालीययोगेन त्यक्त्वैकघननिश्चयम् ।
यदेहितं कल्पयति भावं तेनेह कल्पना ॥ २२ ॥

kākatālīyayogena tyaktvaikaghananiścayam |
yadehitaṃ kalpayati bhāvaṃ teneha kalpanā || 22 ||

The mind is termed fancy for its holding fast on fleeting phantasies by letting loose its solid and certain truths. It is also the imagination, for giving various images or to the objects of its desire—ihita Kalpana. It is called Kakataliya Sanyoga or accidental assemblage of fancied objects. It is defined as the agglutinative and associative power to collect materials for imagination which builds up on them.
