वातस्पन्दाविवाभिन्नौ ब्रह्मसर्गौ विभिन्नता ।
तयोस्त्वसत्या स्वभ्रान्तौ स्वप्ने स्वमरणोपमा ॥ ४१ ॥

vātaspandāvivābhinnau brahmasargau vibhinnatā |
tayostvasatyā svabhrāntau svapne svamaraṇopamā || 41 ||

There is no difference whatever, in the different nature of the creator and creation; except it be as that of the air and its agitation, which are the one and same thing and of the same nature. The thought of their difference is as erroneous, as the sight of one's death in his dream.
