चिद्व्योम्नः कचनं कान्तं यद्विराडिति शब्दितम् ।
भवेत्संकल्पपुरवत्तस्य कुर्यान्मनोऽपि वै ॥ २६ ॥

cidvyomnaḥ kacanaṃ kāntaṃ yadvirāḍiti śabditam |
bhavetsaṃkalpapuravattasya kuryānmano'pi vai || 26 ||

The light of the intellectual vacuum, which passes under the name of Virat; is of the same mind as Brahma, and stretches out the creation, like a castle or city of imagination.
