योगवासिष्ठः yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-3, chapter-20, verse-42

सचेत्यापि तथैवैषा परमव्योमरूपिणी ।
तस्माच्चेत्यमतो नान्यद्वीचित्वादीव वारितः ॥ ४२ ॥

sacetyāpi tathaivaiṣā paramavyomarūpiṇī ,
tasmāccetyamato nānyadvīcitvādīva vāritaḥ 42

42. sacetyā api tathā eva eṣā paramavyomarūpiṇī
tasmāt cetyam ataḥ na anyat vīcitvāt iva vāritaḥ

42. eṣā sacetyā api tathā eva paramavyomarūpiṇī.
tasmāt cetyam ataḥ na anyat.
vīcitvāt iva vāritaḥ.

42. Even possessing objective content (sacetyā), this (consciousness) is still precisely of the nature of the supreme ether (paramavyoma). Therefore, the knowable object (cetya) is not different from this (consciousness); just as a distinction (anyas) is prevented (vāritaḥ) by the very nature of waves (vīcitva).
