योगवासिष्ठः yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-1, chapter-27, verse-32

कल्पाभिधानक्षणजीविनो हि कल्पौघसंख्याकलने विरिञ्चयाः ।
अतः कलाशालिनि कालजाले लघुत्वदीर्घत्वधियोऽप्यसत्याः ॥ ३२ ॥

kalpābhidhānakṣaṇajīvino hi kalpaughasaṃkhyākalane viriñcayāḥ ,
ataḥ kalāśālini kālajāle laghutvadīrghatvadhiyo'pyasatyāḥ 32

32. kalpābhidhānākṣaṇajīvinaḥ hi
kalpaoghasaṃkhyākalane viriñcayāḥ
ataḥ kalāśālini kālajāle
laghutvadīrghatvadhiyaḥ api asatyāḥ

32. hi viriñcayāḥ kalpābhidhānākṣaṇajīvinaḥ kalpaoghasaṃkhyākalane (vartante),
ataḥ kalāśālini kālajāle laghutvadīrghatvadhiyaḥ api asatyāḥ (bhavanti).

32. Indeed, even for the Brahmās, whose lifespan, though called a kalpa, is effectively a 'moment' when compared to the vast calculation of countless kalpas. Therefore, in this intricate network of time (kāla), which is composed of subtle divisions, the very ideas of shortness and length become unreal.
