मिथ्यादृष्टिप्रेक्षितं तु न कदाचन विद्यते ।
मृगतृष्णाम्भसा केन घटकाः परिपूरिताः ॥ १० ॥

mithyādṛṣṭiprekṣitaṃ tu na kadācana vidyate |
mṛgatṛṣṇāmbhasā kena ghaṭakāḥ paripūritāḥ || 10 ||

Whatever is done by one's erroneous knowledge or mistake of a thing, comes to be of no use to him; as the attempt to fill a pot with the water of the mirage, proves to be utterly vain.
