योगवासिष्ठः       yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-5, chapter-91, verse-73

रज्ज्वामिव भुजङ्गत्वं द्वीन्दुत्वं स्वीक्षितादिव ।
शुद्धैव संवित्त्रिजगत्सवेद्यं नान्यदस्त्यलम् ॥ ७३ ॥
rajjvāmiva bhujaṅgatvaṃ dvīndutvaṃ svīkṣitādiva ,
śuddhaiva saṃvittrijagatsavedyaṃ nānyadastyalam 73
73. rajjvām iva bhujangatvam dvi-indutvam sva-īkṣitāt iva
śuddhā eva saṃvit tri-jagat-saṃvedyam na anyat asti alam
73. yathā rajjvām bhujangatvam iva,
yathā sva-īkṣitāt dvi-indutvam iva,
tathā śuddhā eva saṃvit tri-jagat-saṃvedyam (asti) na anyat asti alam
73. Just as the characteristic of a snake (bhujangatva) is perceived in a rope, and the state of being two moons (dvi-indutva) is perceived due to one's own (defective) vision, so too is pure consciousness (saṃvit) itself the knowable three worlds (trijagat-saṃvedyam). Nothing else truly exists.
