Verse 5.36.69

भङ्गुरत्वादिह स्थातुं कालं नाणुमपि क्षमा ।
निमेषलक्षभागाख्या तन्वी कालकला यथा ॥ ६९ ॥

bhaṅguratvādiha sthātuṃ kālaṃ nāṇumapi kṣamā |
nimeṣalakṣabhāgākhyā tanvī kālakalā yathā || 69 ||

The temporary feelings of pleasure and pain, can find no room in the fulness of heavenly felicity (in the entranced mind); just as a minute moment of time, is of no account in the abyss of eternity.
