यथा स्वप्नमृतिर्जन्तोरसत्या सत्यरूपिणी ।
अर्थक्रियाकरी भाति तथा मूढधियां जगत् ॥ ४ ॥

yathā svapnamṛtirjantorasatyā satyarūpiṇī |
arthakriyākarī bhāti tathā mūḍhadhiyāṃ jagat || 4 ||

As the false dream of one's death, appears to be true in the dreaming state, so the false world seems to be a field of action and gain to the deluded man.
