Verse 6.113.13

भूताकाशे तते शून्ये जगन्निर्भित्ति निश्चितम् ।
सुखदुःखान्यनुभवन्मिथ्यैव पुरुषः स्थितः ॥ १३ ॥

bhūtākāśe tate śūnye jagannirbhitti niścitam |
sukhaduḥkhānyanubhavanmithyaiva puruṣaḥ sthitaḥ || 13 ||

The world is verily known to rest without its basis, in the extended and vacuous womb of the visible firmament; and the imaginary soul of the egoist is supposed to dwell in it, and feel all its pain and pleasure in vain.
