यथा यच्चेत्यते हि तथैव तन्न बाह्यतो नान्तरतश्चैतत्समुदेति हि ॥ ८ ॥

yathā yaccetyate hi tathaiva tanna bāhyato nāntarataścaitatsamudeti hi || 8 ||

The form of a thing is said to be so and so, from its appearance only and not in its reality. The snake is affirmed of a rope, but we have neither the outward perception nor inward thought of a snake in it. Hence all appearances are delusions of sense.
