असदृश्यं सदित्युक्तं ब्रह्मैवं नावगम्यते ॥ २६ ॥

asadṛśyam sat iti uktam brahma evam na avagamyate
26. To what state of non-brahman (abrahmaṇya) can I go? For this reason, the world (jagat) is perverse: the non-existent (asadṛśya) is declared to be existent, and the supreme reality (brahman) is not understood in this way.
