Verse 4.31.19

एषातिमूढविषय उक्तिरेव न राजते ।
अभ्यासेन विनोदेति नानुभूतेरपह्नवः ॥ १९ ॥

eṣātimūḍhaviṣaya uktireva na rājate |
abhyāsena vinodeti nānubhūterapahnavaḥ || 19 ||

But such assertions of our nihility are not acceptable to them, who are deluded to the belief of the reality of sensible objects. It is the habit of thinking its reality, that will not listen to its contradiction.
