Let the universe known in deep sleep if it were to be real. Because it is not known even a little bit, it therefore unreal, like a dream.

Annotation

1) A thing which is real should always be perceived. The universe is seen only in the waking state but not in deep sleep. 2) mṛṣā – means that it is not totally unreal like the horn of a hare but it is something which is seen and negated (Jagadguru).
