वासनावलितं चेतो यद्यथा भावयत्यलम् ।
तत्तथानुभवत्याशु न तदस्ति न वाप्यसत् ॥ १६ ॥

vāsanāvalitaṃ ceto yadyathā bhāvayatyalam |
tattathānubhavatyāśu na tadasti na vāpyasat || 16 ||

The mind infatuated by one's hobby, sees exposed to its view, all what it thinks upon within itself. It sees things in the same light, as they are painted in his fancy, whether they be in existence or not, or real or unreal.
