Verse 6.80.54

चेतनाचेतनं भूतजातं व्योम तथाखिलम् ।
सर्वं चिन्मात्रसन्मात्रं शून्यमात्रं यथा नभः ॥ ५४ ॥

cetanācetanaṃ bhūtajātaṃ vyoma tathākhilam |
sarvaṃ cinmātrasanmātraṃ śūnyamātraṃ yathā nabhaḥ || 54 ||

As all cavities and empty spaces are comprised under the term air, so are all intelligent as well as unintelligent beings comprehended under the general category of the one ever existent intellect, which pervades all things in the manner of vacuum.
