अपुनर्दर्शनायैव दग्धसंशुष्कपर्णवत् ।
चित्तं विगलितं विद्धि वह्नौ घृतलवं यथा ॥ ४१ ॥

apunardarśanāyaiva dagdhasaṃśuṣkaparṇavat |
cittaṃ vigalitaṃ viddhi vahnau ghṛtalavaṃ yathā || 41 ||

Want of the partial view of the mind, gives the full view of one undivided soul; which consumes the particulars, as the vivid fire burns away the dry leaves of trees, and as the sacrificial fire consumes the oblations of ghee or clarified butter.
