योगवासिष्ठः       yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-7, chapter-103, verse-16

बोधोऽबोधश्च तद्रूपमेवमेव निरामयम् ।
भेदोऽत्र वाचि न त्वर्थे तस्मान्नास्त्येव दृश्यता ॥ १६ ॥
bodho'bodhaśca tadrūpamevameva nirāmayam ,
bhedo'tra vāci na tvarthe tasmānnāstyeva dṛśyatā 16
16. bodhaḥ abodhaḥ ca tatrūpam evam eva nirāmayam bhedaḥ
atra vāci na tu arthe tasmāt na asti eva dṛśyatā
16. bodhaḥ ca abodhaḥ ca tatrūpam eva eva nirāmayam atra
bhedaḥ vāci eva na tu arthe tasmāt dṛśyatā na asti eva
16. Both knowledge (bodha) and non-knowledge (abodha) are truly of its very nature, and it is in this way flawless. Any distinction here exists only in speech (vāc), not in the actual reality (artha). Therefore, perceptibility (dṛśyatā) itself does not exist.
