Verse 6.22.47

संस्थानमन्यथा तस्मिन्स्थिते यान्ति दिशोऽन्यथा ।
न सन्नासज्जगन्मन्ये भ्रमयन्केवलं धियः ॥ ४७ ॥

saṃsthānamanyathā tasminsthite yānti diśo'nyathā |
na sannāsajjaganmanye bhramayankevalaṃ dhiyaḥ || 47 ||

The site of the polar circle of Meru and the course of the planets being changed in different creations, there ensues an alteration of the points of the compass, and a difference in the sides of the quarters;therefore there is nothing as a positive truth, except our conception of it such and such.
