अजो येषां तु चिद्रूपो नास्ति मौर्ख्यविलासिनाम् ।
सर्गनाशे समुत्पन्ने किं तेषां प्र विचार्यते ॥ ११ ॥

ajo yeṣāṃ tu cidrūpo nāsti maurkhyavilāsinām |
sarganāśe samutpanne kiṃ teṣāṃ pra vicāryate || 11 ||

Of what use is it to reason with the ignorant, concerning the production and destruction of creation (i.e. about the existence or inexistence of the objective world); when they have not the Divine Intellect in their view.
