Verse 4.1.33

साकारवटधानादावङ्कुराः सन्ति युक्तिमत् ।
नाकारे तन्महाकारं जगदस्तीत्ययुक्तिकम् ॥ ३३ ॥

sākāravaṭadhānādāvaṅkurāḥ santi yuktimat |
nākāre tanmahākāraṃ jagadastītyayuktikam || 33 ||

It is reasonable to suppose that the material seeds of the fig and paddy, should bring forth their shoots in time; but it is unreasonable to believe the big material world to be contained in an immaterial atom.
