जगद्रत्नमहाकोशं तुलायां तूलकाल्लघु ।
मायामरीचिशशिनमपि नेक्षणगोचरम् ॥ १४ ॥

jagadratnamahākośaṃ tulāyāṃ tūlakāllaghu |
māyāmarīciśaśinamapi nekṣaṇagocaram || 14 ||

This immense treasure of the universe, so enormous in its bulk, appears yet as light as a feather, when put into balance with the immensity of Brahma; and the rays of his illusion, eluding the moon-beams in their transparency, are as invisible as the glare of the mirage.
