Verse 7.36.5

रूपालोकमनस्कारा सारश्चिन्मात्रतां विना ।
न लभ्यतेऽसावपरं व्योमेवात्र क्व विश्वता ॥ ५ ॥

rūpālokamanaskārā sāraścinmātratāṃ vinā |
na labhyate'sāvaparaṃ vyomevātra kva viśvatā || 5 ||

The phenomenal and the fancy, have no pith nor place except in the intellect; beside which there is nothing to be had save an unbounded vacuity only. Where then is the substantiality of the world?
