असदेतदिति ज्ञात्वा माऽत्र भावं निवेशय ।
अनुधावति न प्राज्ञो विज्ञाय मृगतृष्णिकाम् ॥ २६ ॥

asadetaditi jñātvā mā'tra bhāvaṃ niveśaya |
anudhāvati na prājño vijñāya mṛgatṛṣṇikām || 26 ||

Knowing the world as unreal, try to regard it as nothing;because the wise will never go after a mirage knowing it such.
