श्रीराम उवाच ।
भावना तनुतां याता यस्यासौ किं प्रपश्यति ।
कथं शाम्यति तस्यायं संसारकुहरभ्रमः ॥ ५५ ॥

śrīrāma uvāca |
bhāvanā tanutāṃ yātā yasyāsau kiṃ prapaśyati |
kathaṃ śāmyati tasyāyaṃ saṃsārakuharabhramaḥ || 55 ||

Vasishtha replied:—It is the due consideration of the antecedent and subsequent states of things, which must remove the erroneous impression of their reality; just as the conception of the substantiality of sights seen in our dreams, is eliminated upon reflection of their subsequent disappearance.
