Verse 7.167.1

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
आत्मख्यातिरसत्ख्यातिः ख्यातिरख्यातिरन्यथा ।
शब्दार्थदृष्टयस्तज्ज्ञं प्रत्येताः शशश्रृङ्गवत् ॥ १ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
ātmakhyātirasatkhyātiḥ khyātirakhyātiranyathā |
śabdārthadṛṣṭayastajjñaṃ pratyetāḥ śaśaśrṛṅgavat || 1 ||

Vasishtha continued:—The four titles, namely, the self-styled, the misnamed, the nameless, and the otherwise named, under which the world passes in their different senses; are all meaningless to the spiritualist.
