Verse 7.105.18

यथा द्वौ सदृशौ सूर्यौ यथा द्वौ सदृशौ नरौ ।
जाग्रत्स्वप्नौ तथैवैतौ मनागप्यत्र नान्यता ॥ १८ ॥

yathā dvau sadṛśau sūryau yathā dvau sadṛśau narau |
jāgratsvapnau tathaivaitau manāgapyatra nānyatā || 18 ||

As the two suns (of yesterday and today), are the one and same with one another, and as two men are of the same kind; so it is doubtless that the waking and sleeping states are alike to another.
