दृश्यते रौरवा वीचिनरकानर्थशासना ।
मिथ्याज्ञाने गते वृद्धिं स्वप्नोपवनभूमिषु ॥ ७२ ॥

dṛśyate rauravā vīcinarakānarthaśāsanā |
mithyājñāne gate vṛddhiṃ svapnopavanabhūmiṣu || 72 ||

The more does our false knowledge (error) lay hold of our minds, the more we feel the torments of hell and its punishments in us, as one dreams of night-mares in his sleep.
