Verse 7.168.34

झटित्युदेति ब्रह्मात्म दृश्यं दृष्टमकारणम् ।
खे सुषुप्तादिव स्वप्नः पश्चान्नियतिमृच्छति ॥ ३४ ॥

jhaṭityudeti brahmātma dṛśyaṃ dṛṣṭamakāraṇam |
khe suṣuptādiva svapnaḥ paścānniyatimṛcchati || 34 ||

The light of the Divine spirit, being once seen in this causeless void of the visible world, it continues for ever before our sight; as the dream that we see in our vacant minds in sleep, remains ever afterwards in our remembrance.
