Sanskrit Original
सदिव मनस्त्रिवृत्त्वयि विभात्यसदामनुजात् सदभिमृशन्त्यशेषमिदमात्मतयात्मविद: । न हि विकृतिं त्यजन्ति कनकस्य तदात्मतया स्वकृतमनुप्रविष्टमिदमात्मतयावसितम् ॥ २६ ॥
sad iva manas tri-vṛt tvayi vibhāty asad ā-manujāt sad abhimṛśanty aśeṣam idam ātmatayātma-vidaḥ na hi vikṛtiṁ tyajanti kanakasya tad-ātmatayā sva-kṛtam anupraviṣṭam idam ātmatayāvasitam
The three modes of material nature comprise everything in this world — from the simplest phenomena to the complex human body. Although these phenomena appear real, they are only a false reflection of the spiritual reality, being a superimposition of the mind upon You. Still, those who know the Supreme Self consider the entire material creation to be real inasmuch as it is nondifferent from the Self. Just as things made of gold are indeed not to be rejected, since their substance is actual gold, so this world is undoubtedly nondifferent from the Lord who created it and then entered within it.
