भानमाभानमात्रत्वमिदं यत्तच्चिदात्मना ।
नभसा स्वप्नशब्देन कथ्यते जगदाकृतिः ॥ ७ ॥

bhānamābhānamātratvamidaṃ yattaccidātmanā |
nabhasā svapnaśabdena kathyate jagadākṛtiḥ || 7 ||

It is the reflection of the workings of the intellectual soul, that appears as real within the hollow sphere of the intellect; it resembles the representations of the memory in the mind in our sleep, and takes the name of the visible world.
