भावना प्रेक्ष्यमाणैषा न किंचिदिह शिष्यते ।
न च विद्यत एवेति तद्भ्रमेणालमस्तु नः ॥ ३४ ॥

bhāvanā prekṣyamāṇaiṣā na kiṃcidiha śiṣyate |
na ca vidyata eveti tadbhrameṇālamastu naḥ || 34 ||

The world is but the thought in sight or a visible form of their visible thought, and nothing more in reality besides this phantasm of it, and an illusion of our sight.
