Verse 7.190.11

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
आदिसर्गविधावेव विराडात्मादिकोऽनघ ।
जातो न कश्चिदेवार्थो ज्ञेयस्यातो न संभवः ॥ ११ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
ādisargavidhāveva virāḍātmādiko'nagha |
jāto na kaścidevārtho jñeyasyāto na saṃbhavaḥ || 11 ||

Vasishtha replied:—It was at the time of the first creation of the world, that the self manifested God Virat, exhibited the outline of the cosmos in a corner of his all-comprehensive mind; but as nothing was produced in reality, there is no possibility of our knowing any as a knowable or real entity.
