एकं चेत्यं त्यक्तवत्या अप्राप्तायाश्चितोऽपरम् ।
यद्रूपं जगतो रूपमस्य नानात्मनोऽपि तत् ॥ ४० ॥

ekaṃ cetyaṃ tyaktavatyā aprāptāyāścito'param |
yadrūpaṃ jagato rūpamasya nānātmano'pi tat || 40 ||

As the mind is vacant and still, in the interim of its passing from one thought to another; such is the nature and form of the world (i.e., of a quiet void), although it appears so variegated to view.
