अतः कालक्रियाकुड्यकलादिविमलं नभः ।
चित्तसंस्थं यथा चित्रं सरूपमखिलात्मकम् ॥ १८ ॥

ataḥ kālakriyākuḍyakalādivimalaṃ nabhaḥ |
cittasaṃsthaṃ yathā citraṃ sarūpamakhilātmakam || 18 ||

Know the mind to contain every thing in its clear sphere, such as time and space, the clear sky, and all actions and motions and positions of things;as the area of a map presents the sites of all places upon its surface.
