आदर्शेष्वथवा स्वप्ने सर्गः संकल्पनेऽस्तु वा ।
स आत्मन्यर्थकारित्वात्सत्य इत्येव मे मतिः ॥ ३७ ॥

ādarśeṣvathavā svapne sargaḥ saṃkalpane'stu vā |
sa ātmanyarthakāritvātsatya ityeva me matiḥ || 37 ||

But in my opinion, the firm belief and persuasion of the human soul in anything whatever, is reckoned as true by every one; such as the picture of a thing in a mirror, and the representations of things seen in a dream or the forms of things seen in a picture or in dream, and the creatures of our imagination are all taken for true and real by every one for the time, and for their serviceableness to him.
