Verse 3.14.1

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
इत्थं जगदहंतादिदृश्यजातं न किंचन ।
अजातत्वाच्च नास्त्वेव यच्चास्ति परमेव तत् ॥ १ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
itthaṃ jagadahaṃtādidṛśyajātaṃ na kiṃcana |
ajātatvācca nāstveva yaccāsti parameva tat || 1 ||

Vasishtha added:—In this manner the visible world, myself, thyself and all other things are nothing; all these being unmade and unborn are inexistent: it is the Supreme spirit only that is existent of itself.
