Verse 7.162.14

सर्गादितः स्वपरिभा कचति स्वप्नशैलवत् ।
वस्तुतस्तु न शब्दोस्ति नार्थोऽस्ति न च दृश्यता ॥ १४ ॥

sargāditaḥ svaparibhā kacati svapnaśailavat |
vastutastu na śabdosti nārtho'sti na ca dṛśyatā || 14 ||

It is light of the lord that reflects itself in his creation, and the reflection of his fiat that reverberates through the whole; while in reality there is neither any sound nor substance, that is to be heard or seen in the universe.
