Verse 5.81.10

एकमेव जगच्छान्तं नानात्वं न सदित्यपि ।
किमन्यद्विमृशाम्यन्तः कथयैवालमेतया ॥ १० ॥

ekameva jagacchāntaṃ nānātvaṃ na sadityapi |
kimanyadvimṛśāmyantaḥ kathayaivālametayā || 10 ||

The world is one calm and quiescent Unity of Brahma, and its plurality or multifariousness is as false as a dream. What then shall we think or talk of it, which is nothing in reality.
