Verse 3.91.46

चित्तेव चेत्यते जाड्यं स्वप्ने स्वमरणोपमम् ।
सर्वात्मत्वात्सर्वशक्तीः कुर्वती नैति साम्यताम् ॥ ४६ ॥

citteva cetyate jāḍyaṃ svapne svamaraṇopamam |
sarvātmatvātsarvaśaktīḥ kurvatī naiti sāmyatām || 46 ||

It is the pure substance of the intellect which forms the ideas of gross bodies, as one dreams of his death in his sleep. The all-pervading intelligence which is the all inherent and omnipotent soul, produces all forms in itself, and of which there is no end until they are reduced to unity.
