Verse 4.47.90

अविरलमिदमाततं विकल्पैरसदुदितैरपि तैर्द्विचन्द्रकल्पैः ।
विरचितमसतानुपन्नसत्यं जगदिह तेन विमूढता किमुत्था ॥ ९० ॥

aviralamidamātataṃ vikalpairasaduditairapi tairdvicandrakalpaiḥ |
viracitamasatānupannasatyaṃ jagadiha tena vimūḍhatā kimutthā || 90 ||

The world appearing so extensive and thickly peopled, is but a fancied unreality like the erroneous appearance of two moons in the sky. It is made of unreality though appearing as real, and is not worth reliance by our ignorance of its nature.
