Verse 6.57.3

चित्तस्थचित्रसदृशे व्योमात्मनि जगत्त्रये ।
व्योमात्मनस्ते किमियमहन्ताव्योमतोदिता ॥ ३ ॥

cittasthacitrasadṛśe vyomātmani jagattraye |
vyomātmanaste kimiyamahantāvyomatoditā || 3 ||

The Universe resting in the vacuity of the Divine spirit, appears as a picture on the tablet of the mind; say then how does this egoism or self knowledge of your substantiality, arise from the bosom of the vacuous nullity.
