योगवासिष्ठः       yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-7, chapter-175, verse-14

स्वप्नवत्तच्च निर्धर्म मनागपि न भिद्यते ।
तस्माच्चिद्व्योम चिद्व्योम शून्यत्वं गगनादिवत् ॥ १४ ॥
svapnavattacca nirdharma manāgapi na bhidyate ,
tasmāccidvyoma cidvyoma śūnyatvaṃ gaganādivat 14
14. svapnavat tat ca nirdharma manāk api na bhidyate
tasmāt cidvyoma cidvyoma śūnyatvaṁ gaganādivat
14. tat ca svapnavat nirdharma (ca asti).
manāk api na bhidyate.
tasmāt cidvyoma cidvyoma śūnyatvaṁ gaganādivat (asti).
14. And that (reality) is like a dream, devoid of any intrinsic nature (dharma); it does not differentiate even slightly. Therefore, consciousness-space (cidvyoma) is indeed consciousness-space; its voidness (śūnyatva) is like that of the sky (gagana) and so forth.
