कुत आसीदिति मुने नात्र प्रश्नो विराजते ।
सत एव विचारेण लाभो भवति नासतः ॥ १५ ॥

kuta āsīditi mune nātra praśno virājate |
sata eva vicāreṇa lābho bhavati nāsataḥ || 15 ||

It is improper in this place to raise the question, regarding whence this bug bear of error could rise among mankind; since it is evident from our own reasoning, that there is no such thing as avidya or ignorance (which is the cause of error) ever in existence, nor an asat or not being even in being.
