भावाभावादि नास्त्येषां तस्या इव कदाचन ।
ब्रह्मैव जगदाभासं मरुतापो यथा जलम् ॥ २२ ॥

bhāvābhāvādi nāstyeṣāṃ tasyā iva kadācana |
brahmaiva jagadābhāsaṃ marutāpo yathā jalam || 22 ||

These as well as the Intellect have neither their production nor destruction at any time, because of their subsistence in the spirit of God, which shows them in their various forms, as the heat of the sun exhibits a sheet of water in the sandy desert.
