Verse 7.73.14

यथा स्वप्ने मृतं पश्यत्येक एवात्मनात्मनि ।
मृत एव मृतेर्द्रष्टा तथा चिदणुरात्मनि ॥ १४ ॥

yathā svapne mṛtaṃ paśyatyeka evātmanātmani |
mṛta eva mṛterdraṣṭā tathā cidaṇurātmani || 14 ||

(In order to clear how the intellect can be both the subjective and objective at once, it is said that:) As a man sees himself as dead in his dream, and the dead man sees his own death; so doth the intellect see the minute ideas in itself.
