नेहास्ति सत्यं नो मिथ्या यद्यथा प्रतिभाव्यते ।
तत्तथार्थक्रियाकारि बालयक्षविकारवत् ॥ १४ ॥

nehāsti satyaṃ no mithyā yadyathā pratibhāvyate |
tattathārthakriyākāri bālayakṣavikāravat || 14 ||

There is nothing real or unreal on earth, except the false creations of our brain (as appearances in our dreams); and these whether known as real or unreal, are equally productive of their consequences, as the sights and fears of spectres in children.
