Verse 7.190.69

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
चेत्यं न संभवत्येव चित्किं चेतयते कुतः ।
चेत्यासंभवतश्चित्तसत्ता नास्ति ततश्चिरम् ॥ ६९ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
cetyaṃ na saṃbhavatyeva citkiṃ cetayate kutaḥ |
cetyāsaṃbhavataścittasattā nāsti tataściram || 69 ||

Vasishtha replied:—There being a total absence of thinkable things, what is then left for the intellect to be intent upon; the mind dwells upon its thoughts only, but the want of thinkable objects, leaves nothing for it to think upon.
