योगवासिष्ठः       yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-6, chapter-97, verse-13

द्वित्वैक्याद्यात्मकं व्योमपुष्पवत्स्वानुभूतितः ।
वस्तु नाशैकनिष्ठत्वान्न वा ज्ञमुपपद्यते ॥ १३ ॥
dvitvaikyādyātmakaṃ vyomapuṣpavatsvānubhūtitaḥ ,
vastu nāśaikaniṣṭhatvānna vā jñamupapadyate 13
13. dvitvaikādyātmakaṃ vyomapuṣpavat svānubhūtitaḥ
vastu nāśaikaniṣṭhatvāt na vā jñam upapadyate
13. vastu dvitvaikādyātmakaṃ svānubhūtitaḥ vyomapuṣpavat
nāśaikaniṣṭhatvāt jñam na vā upapadyate
13. That which is characterized by duality, unity, and similar distinctions—such an object (vastu)—is, from the perspective of direct experience (svānubhūti), like a sky-flower (i.e., non-existent). Since its sole nature is to be subject to destruction, it cannot truly be an object of knowledge.
