श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
अधृतं धृतमेवोच्चैरपतच्चैव वा पतत् ।
अनाकृत्येव साकारं जगत्स्वप्नपुरं यथा ॥ ५६ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
adhṛtaṃ dhṛtamevoccairapataccaiva vā patat |
anākṛtyeva sākāraṃ jagatsvapnapuraṃ yathā || 56 ||

Vasishtha replied:—Whether the world is supported by some one or not, and whether it remains fixed (by attraction) or falls off (by its gravity); it is in reality an unsubstantial form, like that of a city in a dream.
