गन्धर्वनगराकारा मृगतृष्णा इवोत्थिता ।
द्विचन्द्रविभ्रमाभासा द्वैतैकत्वविवर्जिता ॥ ३६ ॥

dvicandravibhramābhāsā dvaitaikatvavivarjitā || 36 ||

The world is a magical city, and as a mirage appearing to sight;it is of the nature of the delusive panorama, showing many moons of the one, whose unity admits of no duality. So the one Brahma is represented as many by delusion.
