Verse 6.46.14

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
एवमेतद्विजानासि दृष्टवानसि तां शिलाम् ।
यो यश्च तत्र वै प्राणः समस्तादृगनन्तरः ॥ १४ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
evametadvijānāsi dṛṣṭavānasi tāṃ śilām |
yo yaśca tatra vai prāṇaḥ samastādṛganantaraḥ || 14 ||

Vasishtha replied:—You say truly, that you have seen that great stone and know its inside also; but do you know the unperforated and hollowless stone of the divine mind, that contains the universe in its concavity, and is the life of all living beings.
