Krishna said

नासतो विद्यते भावो नाभावो विद्यते सतः।उभयोरपि दृष्टोऽन्तस्त्वनयोस्तत्त्वदर्शिभिः ॥2.16॥

nāsato vidyate bhāvo nābhāvo vidyate sataḥubhayorapi dṛṣṭo'ntastvanayostattvadarśibhiḥ

Krishna says: what is unreal has no lasting existence, and what is real never stops existing. Those who see the truth have understood the nature of both.

हिंदी में अर्थ
