योगवासिष्ठः yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-7, chapter-163, verse-27

चिद्व्योम्ना काचकच्यं स्वं सर्गादौ व्योम्नि चेतितम् ।
जगदित्येव निर्मूलं काकतालीयवत्स्वयम् ॥ २७ ॥

cidvyomnā kācakacyaṃ svaṃ sargādau vyomni cetitam ,
jagadityeva nirmūlaṃ kākatālīyavatsvayam 27

27. cidvyomnā kācakacyam svam sargādau vyomni cetitam
jagat iti eva nirmūlam kākatālīyavat svayam

27. sargādau vyomni cidvyomnā svam kācakacyam cetitam
iti eva jagat nirmūlam svayam kākatālīyavat

27. By the pure expanse of consciousness (cit-vyoman), its own illusory shimmer (like a mirage) was conceived in the beginning of creation within the space (vyoman). This world (jagat), therefore, is inherently baseless and arises spontaneously, like the 'crow-and-palm-fruit' incident.
