तत्तत्कल्पनयातीतं तत्सुखायैव कल्पते ।
शून्य एव कुसूले तु सिंहोऽस्तीति भयं यथा ॥ ४९ ॥

tattatkalpanayātītaṃ tatsukhāyaiva kalpate |
śūnya eva kusūle tu siṃho'stīti bhayaṃ yathā || 49 ||

Having got rid of his false imagination, man comes to the knowledge of true God and his happiness, as one freed from his false apprehension of a tiger in a copse, is set at rest with himself.
