Verse 6.67.9

परमात्मनि वाचेयमित्थं मायानुमीयते ।
तरङ्गालीव पयसि प्रेक्षामात्रविनाशिनी ॥ ९ ॥

paramātmani vāceyamitthaṃ māyānumīyate |
taraṅgālīva payasi prekṣāmātravināśinī || 9 ||

This delusion of the world, appears to be so situated in the supreme soul, as the rows of waves are seen to roll upon the surface of the calm waters of the sea. So it is said in the very words of the vedas, that the moving worlds are as the fluctuation of the Divine Soul.
