Verse 7.162.7

स्वबुद्धौ स्वर्गशब्दार्थो मिथोन्तस्तत्किलानयोः ।
स्थैर्यास्थैर्ये जाग्रतो द्वे अक्षीबक्षीवयोरिव ॥ ७ ॥

svabuddhau svargaśabdārtho mithontastatkilānayoḥ |
sthairyāsthairye jāgrato dve akṣībakṣīvayoriva || 7 ||

They both know the meaning, of the word creation in their minds; the one having the sense of its sedateness ever wakeful in their minds (from their spiritual view of it); and the other having the sense of its unsteadiness always waking in them (from their sight of the changeful scenes of the outer world); so they resemble the sober and drunken men, that view the world in its steady and shaking states.
