Verse 7.184.41

चित्त्वाच्चिद्व्योम्नि कचति जगत्संकल्पपत्तनम् ।
न सन्नासदिदं तस्माद्भाताभातं यतः स्वतः ॥ ४१ ॥

cittvāccidvyomni kacati jagatsaṃkalpapattanam |
na sannāsadidaṃ tasmādbhātābhātaṃ yataḥ svataḥ || 41 ||

It is the nature of our intellect, to represent the imaginary city of the world in its empty vacuity; it is neither a positive reality, nor a negative unreality either; being now apparent and now lost to sight by itself.
