प्रभुरस्मीति विस्मृत्य तावच्छोचति भूमिपः ।
भूमिपोऽस्मीति संजाता यावन्नास्य हृदि स्मृतिः ॥ ४६ ॥

prabhurasmīti vismṛtya tāvacchocati bhūmipaḥ |
bhūmipo'smīti saṃjātā yāvannāsya hṛdi smṛtiḥ || 46 ||

The king that forgets his nature of the Lord, mistakes himself for a prince, or that he is born or become the ruler of the land; this concept of his which springs from ignorance of his divine nature, vanishes soon after he comes to the real knowledge of himself.
