Verse 6.114.21

जन्तोर्यथा मनोराज्यं विविधारम्भभासुरम् ।
ब्राह्मं तथेदं विततं मनोराज्यं विराजते ॥ २१ ॥

jantoryathā manorājyaṃ vividhārambhabhāsuram |
brāhmaṃ tathedaṃ vitataṃ manorājyaṃ virājate || 21 ||

The phenomenal world is a display of the realm of the divine mind, in the same manner as the Utopia and Elysium, display the imaginary dominions formed in the minds of men; and as every man builds the airy castle of his mind.
