Verse 3.15.13

तस्मादचेत्यचिदूपं जगद्व्योमेव केवलम् ।
शून्यौ व्योमजगच्छब्दौ पर्यायौ विद्धि चिन्मयौ ॥ १३ ॥

tasmādacetyacidūpaṃ jagadvyomeva kevalam |
śūnyau vyomajagacchabdau paryāyau viddhi cinmayau || 13 ||

Know therefore the insensible world to be the inverse of the sensible soul, and the substantive world as the reverse of the unsubstantial vacuum. The words plenum and vacuum are both as inane as airy breath, because these opposites are but different views of the same Intellect.
