योगवासिष्ठः yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-3, chapter-7, verse-40

जगन्नाम्ना न चोत्पन्नं न चास्ति न च दृश्यते ।
हेम्नीव कटकादित्वं किमेतन्मार्जने श्रमः ॥ ४० ॥

jagannāmnā na cotpannaṃ na cāsti na ca dṛśyate ,
hemnīva kaṭakāditvaṃ kimetanmārjane śramaḥ 40

40. jagat-nāmnā na ca utpannam na ca asti na ca dṛśyate
hemni iva kaṭaka-āditvam kim etat mārjane śramaḥ

40. jagat-nāmnā na ca utpannam na ca asti na ca dṛśyate hemni kaṭaka-āditvam iva (asti).
etat mārjane śramaḥ kim?

40. This 'world' (jagat) is not truly born, does not truly exist, and is not truly seen by its own name, just as 'being a bracelet' and so on, does not truly exist apart from the gold itself. Why, then, exert effort in polishing (or refining) this (illusory appearance)?
