Verse 4.31.33

सर्वं शान्तं च निःशून्यं न किंचिदिव संस्थितम् ।
तत्र व्योम्नि विभान्तीमा निजा भासोऽङ्ग सृष्टयः ॥ ३३ ॥

sarvaṃ śāntaṃ ca niḥśūnyaṃ na kiṃcidiva saṃsthitam |
tatra vyomni vibhāntīmā nijā bhāso'ṅga sṛṣṭayaḥ || 33 ||

Being perfect quietude and void, he seems as nothing existent; and all these creations subsist in that vacuity as particles of its own splendour.
