असदेव सदाकारं संकल्पेन्दुर्यथा न सन् ।
तमेव भावयन् द्रष्ट्रदृश्यरूपतया स्थितः ॥ २० ॥

asadeva sadākāraṃ saṃkalpenduryathā na san |
tameva bhāvayan draṣṭradṛśyarūpatayā sthitaḥ || 20 ||

The unreal appearing as real, proves to be unreal at last; as the fictitious moon becomes a nullity afterwards; so the soul continues to view itself subjectively and objectively both as the viewer and the view.
