कुत एषा कथं चेति विकल्पाननुदाहरन् ।
नेदमेषां न चास्तीति स्वयं ज्ञास्यसि बोधतः ॥ ७ ॥

kuta eṣā kathaṃ ceti vikalpānanudāharan |
nedameṣāṃ na cāstīti svayaṃ jñāsyasi bodhataḥ || 7 ||

Whence are all these and what are they, is a doubt (inquiry) which naturally rises of itself in the mind;and you will come to know by your own cogitation, that all this is nothing and is not in existence.
