Anvaya

there
मरौ सलिलवत्marau salilavat
like water in a mirage

Translation

A person in whom these two – dispassion and yearning for liberation – are weak, self–restraint etc., are merely apparent (not real), like water in a desert (mirage).

Annotation

Appearance of water in a desert is merely an optical illusion and it will be of no real use (Jagadguru).
