na dṛśyante manobhavāḥ
dṛśyamānā vinārthena
na dṛśyante manobhavāḥ
karmabhir dhyāyato nānā-
karmāṇi manaso 'bhavan
Imaginary objects seen in the absence of real objects are not seen when waking from a dream. They are products of the mind. Actions for attaining objects of a person meditating on those objects because of impressions of karma are also made of the mind.
Imaginary objects are seen without some real object such as a tiger or snake existing, but when the dream is over, they are not seen. Impermanent objects like wife and false objects, like dreams, all arise from the mind, since they arise from desires in the mind (manobhavāḥ). Actions also are composed of the mind because one meditates (using his mind) on objects because of his impressions of karma (in order to carry out action). Because the action is composed of mind, the object attained is also made of the mind.

The body of the jīva who thinks he is the body is composed of the gross organs, the sense devatās and the senses. It is said that this body gives various types of suffering and pain to the jīva.
It has been explained that attachment to objects is the cause of suffering. Now identification with the body is described. The body of the jīva who thinks he is the body is made of gross elements, sense devatās and the senses.[95]

tasmāt svasthena manasā

dvaite dhruvārtha-viśrambhaṁ
tyajopaśamam āviśa
Therefore, considering with steady mind the truth about the soul, give up faith that temporary objects are eternal in this world of duality and take shelter of detachment.
With undisturbed mind consider the truth of the soul. Give up faith or affection, (viśrvambham) thinking that temporary objects are eternal (dhruva) in the world of duality, holding the conception of this world, me and my objects. Amara-koṣa says śāśvatas, dhruva, nitya, sadātana and sanātanā mean “eternal.” Take shelter (āviśa) of a peaceful mind.
