ब्रह्मलोकजनं सर्वं महतामिव वासनाम् ।
नापश्यं स्वप्ननगरं बुध्यमान इवाग्रगम् ॥ ८ ॥

nāpaśyaṃ svapnanagaraṃ budhyamāna ivāgragam || 8 ||

I then lost the sight of the deities, assembled in the Brahma-loka or in the world of Brahma, as when great minded men, lose the sight of the most prominent objects of their desire from their minds. Nor did I perceive the aerial city of my dream before me, upon my waking.
