Verse 7.103.65

परमाणुसमूहा ये जगदित्यप्यवास्तवम् ।
शशश्रृङ्गं धनुःप्रख्यमज्ञानादभिधीयते ॥ ६५ ॥

paramāṇusamūhā ye jagadityapyavāstavam |
śaśaśrṛṅgaṃ dhanuḥprakhyamajñānādabhidhīyate || 65 ||

To say that the world is the aggregate of atoms, or an atomic formation, is as absurd as to call a bow made of the horn of a hare.
