अविद्यायामन्तरे वर्तमानाः स्वयं धीराः पण्डितं मन्यमानाः ।जङ्घन्यमानाः परियन्ति मूढा अन्धेनैव नीयमाना यथान्धाः ॥ ८ ॥
In plain words
Dwelling in the midst of Avidyā, yet considering themselves wise and thinking themselves learned, the deluded wander about, struck down again and again, led by one who is blind—just as the blind are led by the blind.
