निर्मोक्षा निःशरीरास्ते चेतनावासनान्विताः ।
दृष्टं स्वप्नजगज्जालं विना च क्व वसन्तु ते ॥ १८ ॥

nirmokṣā niḥśarīrāste cetanāvāsanānvitāḥ |
dṛṣṭaṃ svapnajagajjālaṃ vinā ca kva vasantu te || 18 ||

There are other intelligent spirits, which being fast bound to their desires, are never awakened nor liberated from their ignorance; but continue to dwell on the visionary world, which they see in their day dream.
