श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
एवं चिन्मात्रमेवैकं शुद्धं सत्त्वं जगत्त्रयम् ।
संभवन्तीह भूतानि नाज्ञबुद्धानि कानिचित् ॥ १ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
evaṃ cinmātramevaikaṃ śuddhaṃ sattvaṃ jagattrayam |
saṃbhavantīha bhūtāni nājñabuddhāni kānicit || 1 ||

Vasishtha continued:—Now as the triple world is known, to be a purely intellectual entity; there is no possibility of the existence of any material substance herein, as it is believed by the ignorant majority of mankind.
