क्षणभावितमोहेन कल्पना परिकल्पिता ।
असदेव मनोराज्यं कर्तुं शक्तं यथा मनः ॥ २२ ॥

kṣaṇabhāvitamohena kalpanā parikalpitā |
asadeva manorājyaṃ kartuṃ śaktaṃ yathā manaḥ || 22 ||

Though the erroneous thoughts of the mind, are so instantaneous and temporary; yet it has the power of stretching out the ideas of the length and duration of the world, as it has of producing new ideas of all things from nothing.
