Verse 5.57.1

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
यदात्ममरिचस्यान्तश्चित्त्वात्तीक्ष्णत्ववेदनम् ।
तदहंतादि भेदादि देशकालादि चेत्यतः ॥ १ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
yadātmamaricasyāntaścittvāttīkṣṇatvavedanam |
tadahaṃtādi bhedādi deśakālādi cetyataḥ || 1 ||

Vasishtha continued:—The intellect residing in the soul, is felt by all like the poignancy inherent in pepper;and it is this, whereby we have the intellection of the ego and non-ego, and of the distinctions of the undivided dimension of infinite duration and space.
