Ashtavakra Gita · Verse 10.2 · Ashtavakra speaks
Look upon friends, lands, wealth, houses, wives, presents and such other good fortunes as a dream or a juggler's show, lasting three or five days.
Word by word
स्वप्नेन्द्रजालवत्
svapnendrajālavat
like a dream and magic show
compound indeclinable (taddhita with vat suffix); svapna + indrajāla + vat
The compound svapna (dream) + indrajāla (juggler's illusion/magic) conveys the twofold unreality of worldly things: they are as insubstantial as a dream and as deceptive as a conjurer's trick. Both analogies are stock Advaita metaphors for māyā.
