Verse 7.63.6

तच्चिदाकाशकचनं यन्नाम स्वप्नवेदने ।
आकाशमेव नभसः कचनं विद्धि नेतरत् ॥ ६ ॥

taccidākāśakacanaṃ yannāma svapnavedane |
ākāśameva nabhasaḥ kacanaṃ viddhi netarat || 6 ||

The dreams and images (ideas), which appear in the sphere of the intellect, are no other than appearances of itself; as the visible sky is nothing else, than the invisible vacuum itself.
