Verse 7.34.19

यस्येक्षितस्य नो सत्ता नाधारो न च कारणम् ।
सोऽहमित्येव यो यक्षो न जाने कुत उत्थितः ॥ १९ ॥

yasyekṣitasya no sattā nādhāro na ca kāraṇam |
so'hamityeva yo yakṣo na jāne kuta utthitaḥ || 19 ||

An appearance which has neither its essence or substance, and any assignable cause for its existence, is the very nature of this egoism of ours, which we know not whence it has appeared as an apparition before us.
