मृतेरनन्तरं भाति यथास्थितमिदं जगत् ।
शून्यास्मैव घनाकारं तस्मिन्नेव क्षणे चितः ॥ ५२ ॥

mṛteranantaraṃ bhāti yathāsthitamidaṃ jagat |
śūnyāsmaiva ghanākāraṃ tasminneva kṣaṇe citaḥ || 52 ||

After the demise of a person, the world exhibits itself in the same form as it is, in the minute atom of his mind; and this is but a vacuous mass of the visible and material world, in its invisible and imaginary figure.
