Verse 3.26.49

खं पृथ्व्यादितया बुद्धं पृथ्व्यादि भवति क्षणात् ।
मूर्च्छायां परलोकोऽपि प्रत्यक्षमनुभूयते ॥ ४९ ॥

khaṃ pṛthvyāditayā buddhaṃ pṛthvyādi bhavati kṣaṇāt |
mūrcchāyāṃ paraloko'pi pratyakṣamanubhūyate || 49 ||

As the air appears as earth in dreaming, so does the non-existent world appear to be existent in waking. It is thus that men see and talk of things unseen and unknown in their fits of delirium.
