यत्कोशे विद्यते द्रव्यं तद्द्रष्ट्रा लभ्यते यथा ।
तथास्ति सर्वं चिद्व्योम्नि चेत्यते तत्त्वनेन वै ॥ २६ ॥

yatkośe vidyate dravyaṃ taddraṣṭrā labhyate yathā |
tathāsti sarvaṃ cidvyomni cetyate tattvanena vai || 26 ||

As one picks up a jewel he happens to meet with in a treasure house, so do we lay hold on any thing, with which the vast Intellect is filled according to our own liking.
