स्वप्नशब्देन बोधार्थं तव व्यवहराम्यहम् ।
दृश्यं त्विदं न सन्नासन्न स्वप्नो ब्रह्म केवलम् ॥ ३४ ॥

svapnaśabdena bodhārthaṃ tava vyavaharāmyaham |
dṛśyaṃ tvidaṃ na sannāsanna svapno brahma kevalam || 34 ||

The word dream that I have used and adduced to you, as an instance to explain the nature of the phenomenal world; is to be understood as it is neither a reality nor an unreality either, but the only Brahma himself.
