Verse 7.204.12

श्रीराम उवाच ।
आत्मास्य केवलं व्योम न सद्भूम्यचलादिकम् ।
जगतः स्वप्नरूपस्य निराकारो निरास्पदः ॥ १२ ॥

śrīrāma uvāca |
ātmāsya kevalaṃ vyoma na sadbhūmyacalādikam |
jagataḥ svapnarūpasya nirākāro nirāspadaḥ || 12 ||

Rama replied:—The dream of the dreaming world, has no form nor position of its own; its soul and substance is mere void, and the earth and rocks which it presents to sight, are nil and in nubibus.
