Verse 7.39.25

यद्भातं प्रेक्षया नास्ति तन्नास्त्येव निरन्तरम् ।
जगद्रूपमरूपात्म ब्रह्म ब्रह्मणि संस्थितम् ॥ २५ ॥

yadbhātaṃ prekṣayā nāsti tannāstyeva nirantaram |
jagadrūpamarūpātma brahma brahmaṇi saṃsthitam || 25 ||

An appearance which vanishes on our insight into it, must be held as no appearance at all; so the formal and phenomenal world, which vanishes into the formless and invisible spirit of God, is nothing real or substantial of itself.
