Verse 7.169.40

इदमस्मज्जगत्पश्यन्स्वयमाकाशकोणके ।
विशदाकाशकोशात्मा हा शेते सुखमात्मवान् ॥ ४० ॥

idamasmajjagatpaśyansvayamākāśakoṇake |
viśadākāśakośātmā hā śete sukhamātmavān || 40 ||

How happily doth the self-communist, rest in the depth of his inmost thoughts; who finds himself as null and void, as the infinite vacuum itself, and views the universe hovering as a dream, in a corner of that vacuity.
