Verse 6.94.56

अकारणं तु यत्कार्यं सदिवाग्रेऽनुभूयते ।
तद्द्रष्टुर्विभ्रमाद्विद्धि मृगतृष्णाजलोपमम् ॥ ५६ ॥

akāraṇaṃ tu yatkāryaṃ sadivāgre'nubhūyate |
taddraṣṭurvibhramādviddhi mṛgatṛṣṇājalopamam || 56 ||

Whatever product appears to present itself to anyone without its true cause, is as false an appearance as the mirage in the sand, before its deluded observer.
