Verse 7.42.8

अविवेकविवेकाभ्यां भासुरं भङ्गुरं जगत् ।
बोधे सदैव सद्रूपमभासुरमभङ्गुरम् ॥ ८ ॥

avivekavivekābhyāṃ bhāsuraṃ bhaṅguraṃ jagat |
bodhe sadaiva sadrūpamabhāsuramabhaṅguram || 8 ||

The world is manifest to the sight of the ignorant, but it is frail and nebulous in the estimation of the intelligent. It is however neither manifest nor mysterious to the sapient, who believe it as an existence subsisting in the entity of the self-existent unity.
