Verse 7.172.42

द्वयमेतदसत्तस्माद्वन्धो नाम न विद्यते ।
चिद्व्योम्नि भूतव्योमाभे शून्य एव यथास्थितम् ॥ ४२ ॥

dvayametadasattasmādvandho nāma na vidyate |
cidvyomni bhūtavyomābhe śūnya eva yathāsthitam || 42 ||

Both of these views are wrong, and tend to our bondage in the world; but the view of its voidness in the vacuity of the Intellect, is the only means to our release and liberation from it.
