भ्रान्तिवस्तुस्वभावोऽसौ न स्वप्नो न सुषुप्तता ।
न सर्गो न च निर्वाणं सत्यं शान्तमशेषतः ॥ १६ ॥

bhrāntivastusvabhāvo'sau na svapno na suṣuptatā |
na sargo na ca nirvāṇaṃ satyaṃ śāntamaśeṣataḥ || 16 ||

Error is incidental to the nature of things, and sleeping and dreaming are properties accidental to the material body; hence neither do these nor the acts of creation and annihilation, (which are likened to them), relate to the omniscient and self-sufficient intellect.
