Verse 7.160.56

यन्नाम किंचन कदाचन चेतनं खे भातं न भातमथवा यदपूर्वमेव ।
तत्कल्पनाद्भवति तन्मयमेव तद्धि तस्माच्चिरं च चलतीति यदृच्छयैव ॥ ५६ ॥

yannāma kiṃcana kadācana cetanaṃ khe bhātaṃ na bhātamathavā yadapūrvameva |
tatkalpanādbhavati tanmayameva taddhi tasmācciraṃ ca calatīti yadṛcchayaiva || 56 ||

Whatever form or figure, ever appears in the vacuum of the Intellect; or whatsoever is dreamt or thought of at anytime; the same holds fast the imagination, and presents itself before the mirror of the mind of its own accord.
