Verse 7.38.34

अहमस्त्यविचारेण विचारेणाहमस्ति नो ।
अभावादहमर्थस्य क्व जगत्क्व च संसृतिः ॥ ३४ ॥

ahamastyavicāreṇa vicāreṇāhamasti no |
abhāvādahamarthasya kva jagatkva ca saṃsṛtiḥ || 34 ||

I speak of my ego from my want of reason, but reason points out no egoism in me;hence the want of any sense in the word ego, makes the existence of the world quite null and void to me.
