Verse 7.213.10

शिष्य उवाच ।
नासतो विद्यते भावो नाभावो विद्यते सतः ।
इदं तत्कथमाभोगि विद्यमानं क्व गच्छति ॥ १० ॥

śiṣya uvāca |
nāsato vidyate bhāvo nābhāvo vidyate sataḥ |
idaṃ tatkathamābhogi vidyamānaṃ kva gacchati || 10 ||

The entity never becomes a non-entity, nor the non-entity never comes to be an entity; tell me therefore where the past world disappears, and from whence the future world comes to existence.
