Verse 7.175.22

नेह पृथ्व्यादि नो देहो न चैवान्यास्ति दृश्यता ।
जगत्तया केवलं खं मनः कचकचायते ॥ २२ ॥

neha pṛthvyādi no deho na caivānyāsti dṛśyatā |
jagattayā kevalaṃ khaṃ manaḥ kacakacāyate || 22 ||

But there was neither the earth, nor any material form, nor even anything of a visible appearance therein; it was only his mind which exhibited itself, in the form of the formless and vacuous world.
