Verse 2.3.13

स्वप्नसंवित्तिषुरवत्स्मृतिजातखपुष्पवत् ।
जगत्संसरणं स्वान्तर्मृतोऽनुभवति स्वयम् ॥ १३ ॥

svapnasaṃvittiṣuravatsmṛtijātakhapuṣpavat |
jagatsaṃsaraṇaṃ svāntarmṛto'nubhavati svayam || 13 ||

It is an illusion as the phantom of a city in a dream, and as untrue as the imagination of a flower growing in the air. The unreality of the world best appears to one at the point of and after his death.
