मनागपि न संबन्धस्तव दृश्येन वस्तुना ।
अविद्यमानरूपेण संबन्धः कोऽयमीदृशः ॥ १२ ॥

manāgapi na saṃbandhastava dṛśyena vastunā |
avidyamānarūpeṇa saṃbandhaḥ ko'yamīdṛśaḥ || 12 ||

Thou canst have no concern with the visible objects (phenomenal world); for what concern can one have with any earthly thing which is inexistent of itself as an unsubstantial shadow?
