योगवासिष्ठः       yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-6, chapter-11, verse-28

त्वत्तामत्ते तथा न स्तो ब्रह्मणि स्पन्दरूपिणि ।
यथावर्तमृते तोये न किंचिन्म्रियते क्वचित् ॥ २८ ॥
tvattāmatte tathā na sto brahmaṇi spandarūpiṇi ,
yathāvartamṛte toye na kiṃcinmriyate kvacit 28
28. tvattā-matte tathā na staḥ brahmaṇi spandarūpiṇi
| yathā āvartam ṛte toye na kiñcit mriyate kvacit
28. tathā spandarūpiṇi brahmaṇi tvattā-matte na staḥ
yathā āvartam ṛte toye kvacit kiñcit na mriyate
28. Similarly, 'you-ness' (tvattā) and 'I-ness' (mattā) do not exist in the ultimate reality (brahman) which is of the nature of vibration. Just as in water, apart from a whirlpool, nothing dies anywhere.
