Verse 7.210.28

शून्यमर्थोपलम्भश्च भानं चाभानमेव च ।
द्वैतमैक्यमसत्सच्च सर्वं चिद्गगनं परम् ॥ २८ ॥

śūnyamarthopalambhaśca bhānaṃ cābhānameva ca |
dvaitamaikyamasatsacca sarvaṃ cidgaganaṃ param || 28 ||

The vacuum as well as the plenum of objects, and the reflection as likewise the eclipse or adumbration of things; the existence and inexistence of the world and matter, and the unity and duality of the divine entity, are all but the extraneous phases or aspects of the same vacuous intellect.
