Verse 7.18.43

जगन्ति वातैरुह्यन्ते व्योम्नि शाल्मलितूलवत् ।
नोह्यन्ते चोपलानीव न च सन्त्येव कल्पनात् ॥ ४३ ॥

jaganti vātairuhyante vyomni śālmalitūlavat |
nohyante copalānīva na ca santyeva kalpanāt || 43 ||

The imagination of the ignorant, whirls about the worlds, as the wind hurls the flying cotton in the air; but they appear to be as unmoved as stones to the wise, who are not led away by their imagination.
