यथा नद्यातपजले क्षते क्षीणे न तत्क्षतिः ।
संकल्पमात्ररचिते प्रकृत्यैव च नाशिनि ॥ २५ ॥

yathā nadyātapajale kṣate kṣīṇe na tatkṣatiḥ |
saṃkalpamātraracite prakṛtyaiva ca nāśini || 25 ||

As the dis-appearance of water in the sunny banks of rivers, is no deprivation of the river's water; so the creations of fancy which are not negative in their nature, cannot be destructive of what is positive, nor any damage done to the machine of the body, can ever injure the dis-embodied soul.
