Verse 7.10.19

भेदो जगद्ब्रह्मदृशोरभेदः पर्यायशब्दार्थविलासतुल्यः ।
संकल्पमात्रं कथितो न सत्यो यथानयोर्वै कटकत्वहेम्नोः ॥ १९ ॥

bhedo jagadbrahmadṛśorabhedaḥ paryāyaśabdārthavilāsatulyaḥ |
saṃkalpamātraṃ kathito na satyo yathānayorvai kaṭakatvahemnoḥ || 19 ||

The distinction of the world from the essence of Brahma, is entirely lost in the sight of them, that have unity of Brahma only before their view. The subjective and objective are of equal import to them, who believe all sensible objects as mere productions of fancy from the very substance of Brahma, as the various ornaments are but transformations of the same material of gold &c.
