Verse 3.84.7

प्लाविन्यो वीचयो वारिण्यन्यानन्याः स्थिता यथा ।
वर्तमाना अपि परे सृष्टयः संस्थितास्तथा ॥ ७ ॥

plāvinyo vīcayo vāriṇyanyānanyāḥ sthitā yathā |
vartamānā api pare sṛṣṭayaḥ saṃsthitāstathā || 7 ||

These float (before our eyes) like the waves upon waters, which are apparently of different forms, and yet essentially the same with the element, on which they seem to move. So the creations whether present, past or future, are all situated in the Supreme Spirit.
