सद्वा भवत्वसद्वा चिद्यत्संकल्पयत्यभिनिविशति तत्तत्पश्यति सकला तत्सद्ब्रह्मैव चिद्भाति ॥ ११ ॥

sadvā bhavatvasadvā cidyatsaṃkalpayatyabhiniviśati tattatpaśyati sakalā tatsadbrahmaiva cidbhāti || 11 ||

Now whether the forms (of material things) be real or unreal, it is to be known that they appear to men according to their different apprehensions of those beings, which Brahma is pleased to exhibit in any particular form to their minds and senses.
