Verse 7.106.43

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
चित्प्रकाशो यथाभानं यदा भावयति स्वयम् ।
स्वात्मा तथा तदेवाशु पश्यसीत्यसि दृष्टवान् ॥ ४३ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
citprakāśo yathābhānaṃ yadā bhāvayati svayam |
svātmā tathā tadevāśu paśyasītyasi dṛṣṭavān || 43 ||

Vasishtha replied:—Whenever the Lord thinks on the manifestation of his intellect, He beholds the same at the very moment, and then becomes the subjective beholder of the objects of his own thought.
