अज्ञानात्प्रसृता यस्माज्जगत्पर्णपरम्पराः ।
यस्मिंस्तिष्ठन्ति राजन्ते विशन्ति विलसन्ति च ॥ ५३ ॥

ajñānātprasṛtā yasmājjagatparṇaparamparāḥ |
yasmiṃstiṣṭhanti rājante viśanti vilasanti ca || 53 ||

How flourishing is the kalpa tree or all fruitful arbour of delusion; which is ever fraught with endless objects of our imaginary desire, and stretches out the infinite worlds to our erroneous conception as its leaves.
