Verse 7.165.11

सन्त्येवासत्यभूतानि स्फारापि परमार्थतः ।
नास्त्येवाकारवत्तेयं स्वप्नोर्व्यामिव जाग्रति ॥ ११ ॥

santyevāsatyabhūtāni sphārāpi paramārthataḥ |
nāstyevākāravatteyaṃ svapnorvyāmiva jāgrati || 11 ||

These creations which are so conspicuous to sight, are at best but nothing in their transcendental light and all the forms of things, are as the empty shadows of them appearing in our dreams.
