Verse 7.210.2

चन्द्रबिम्बस्य ध्यातारः प्राप्ताः प्राप्तव्यसुस्थिताः ।
नेदं नभस्तलं प्राप्ता न चेमं शशिनं श्रिताः ॥ २ ॥

candrabimbasya dhyātāraḥ prāptāḥ prāptavyasusthitāḥ |
nedaṃ nabhastalaṃ prāptā na cemaṃ śaśinaṃ śritāḥ || 2 ||

Those that aspired to become as bright as the full moon of heaven, became actually so in their conception of themselves as such in the sphere of their minds; and not by their situation in the vault of the sky or in the orb of that luminary.
