Verse 7.37.66

बुद्ध्यादेः कारणत्वं च द्वैतैक्यासंभवान्न सत् ।
अनेनेदं क्रियत इत्यस्यार्थं याति संभवात् ॥ ६६ ॥

buddhyādeḥ kāraṇatvaṃ ca dvaitaikyāsaṃbhavānna sat |
anenedaṃ kriyata ityasyārthaṃ yāti saṃbhavāt || 66 ||

The instrumentality of the mind &c. in the causation of the world, is also untrue and absurd, owing to the union of two causes in one.
