असत्सत्कुरुते क्षिप्रमितीयं भ्रान्तिरुत्थिता ।
क्षणेनैव मनोराज्यं प्रतिभातं स्वभावतः ॥ २४ ॥

asatsatkurute kṣipramitīyaṃ bhrāntirutthitā |
kṣaṇenaiva manorājyaṃ pratibhātaṃ svabhāvataḥ || 24 ||

It has the power also of producing a thing from nothing, and of converting one to another in a trice; it is this capacity of it, which gives rise to the erroneous conception of the world, in the same manner, as it raises the airy castle and fairy lands of its own nature in a moment.
