अविद्यामिव संमोहमृगतृष्णां गतां भ्रमात् ।
जडतामाततां शून्यां दिङ्मोहमिहिकाकुलाम् ॥ ७ ॥

avidyāmiva saṃmohamṛgatṛṣṇāṃ gatāṃ bhramāt |
jaḍatāmātatāṃ śūnyāṃ diṅmohamihikākulām || 7 ||

It seemed as delusive as the appearance of avidya or illusion itself;by the deceptive waters of mirage upon the sand, by its dulness and empty space and the mist overhanging on all sides of it.
