Verse 6.28.33

संकल्पकलनामात्रं तथेदमवभासनम् ।
यथा कल्पित आभासो मनसोऽब्जजतां गतः ॥ ३३ ॥

saṃkalpakalanāmātraṃ tathedamavabhāsanam |
yathā kalpita ābhāso manaso'bjajatāṃ gataḥ || 33 ||

It is a creation of the will only and a display of it in the same manner, as the fancied chimera of Brahmanship had possessed the minds of the sons of Indu.
