Verse 5.13.13

संसारमननं चित्रं विचारेण विलीयते ।
गलद्वशीकृतस्पर्शमातपेन हिमं यथा ॥ १३ ॥

saṃsāramananaṃ citraṃ vicāreṇa vilīyate |
galadvaśīkṛtasparśamātapena himaṃ yathā || 13 ||

The firm conviction of the material world, melts into nothing under the light of percipience; as the thick and tangible ice, dissolves into fluidity under the heat of the sun.
