Verse 7.72.13

तत्स्वामाकाशतां चैतच्चेत्यमित्यवबुध्यते ।
स्वरूपमत्यजन्नित्यं चित्त्वाद्भवति चेतनम् ॥ १३ ॥

tatsvāmākāśatāṃ caitaccetyamityavabudhyate |
svarūpamatyajannityaṃ cittvādbhavati cetanam || 13 ||

This vacuity of it (the subjective chit), is known as the objective chetya or thought; and the intellect without forsaking its form, becomes chetana or the power of intellection (or the mind) itself.
