Verse 7.172.45

अपृथ्व्यादि कुतस्तत्र किल पृथ्व्यादयो वद ।
तद्भाति केवलं शान्तं चिदाकाशं तथात्मनि ॥ ४५ ॥

apṛthvyādi kutastatra kila pṛthvyādayo vada |
tadbhāti kevalaṃ śāntaṃ cidākāśaṃ tathātmani || 45 ||

How can any earthly or other elemental body, have its place in the spirit of God, which is not of the form of the earth or any other element; it shines of itself and in itself, in and as the quiet void of the Intellect itself.
