Verse 7.83.4

यथा नाम स कल्पान्तः स रुद्रः सा च भैरवी ।
मायामात्रं तथा सर्वं परिज्ञातमलं मया ॥ ४ ॥

yathā nāma sa kalpāntaḥ sa rudraḥ sā ca bhairavī |
māyāmātraṃ tathā sarvaṃ parijñātamalaṃ mayā || 4 ||

I saw at the end of the kalpa cycle, the two spectres of delusion, appearing before me; the one was the furious Rudra, and the other—the ferocious Bhairava; and knew them both to be but delusion, and creatures of my mistaken fancy.
