न कदाचन यन्नास्ति तद्ब्रह्मैवास्ति तज्जगत् ।
तस्मिन्मध्ये कचन्तीमा भ्रान्तयः सृष्टिनामिकाः ॥ २८ ॥

na kadācana yannāsti tadbrahmaivāsti tajjagat |
tasminmadhye kacantīmā bhrāntayaḥ sṛṣṭināmikāḥ || 28 ||

That which is never inexistent, is the ever existent Brahma, and the same is the world. It is in him that we see everything to rise and fall by our fallacy, and what we falsely term as the creation or the created.
