Verse 7.106.18

यस्योन्मेषनिमेषाभ्यां जगत्सत्तालयोदयौ ।
स्वानुभूत्यात्मकं स्वान्तः स्थितं तद्विद्धिचिन्नभः ॥ १८ ॥

yasyonmeṣanimeṣābhyāṃ jagatsattālayodayau |
svānubhūtyātmakaṃ svāntaḥ sthitaṃ tadviddhicinnabhaḥ || 18 ||

Know the intellectual vacuum to be possessed of its intellection, and as quiet and composed in its nature; and it is by a thought of it, as by twinkling or winking of the eye, that the world comes to exist and disappear by turns.
