। ॥ ५३१ ॥
In plain words
All those arguments are only semblance, and so are all those statements — like a son's hold on the house, on every affair of it and every belonging, which only resembles the father's.
Close to the Sanskrit
Mere semblances are they all — the arguments, and the statements too — like the father's, for the son, in the house, in all the affairs and in the things.
