Verse 7.97.15

अशेषं शून्यमेवेति बौद्धानामेतदेव सत् ।
लभ्यते तद्विचारेण यत्र किंचन नैव हि ॥ १५ ॥

aśeṣaṃ śūnyameveti bauddhānāmetadeva sat |
labhyate tadvicāreṇa yatra kiṃcana naiva hi || 15 ||

An infinite vacuity is reality, is the conclusion arrived at by the Buddhist; but there is nothing to be gained by this inquiry, nor any good to be derived from a void nullity.
