श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
दृश्यं जाग्रत्यथ स्वप्ने खाधारं खात्मकं खजम् ।
खं च नान्यत्परं जातु संदेहोऽस्त्युपपत्तितः ॥ ३ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca ,
dṛśyaṃ jāgratyatha svapne khādhāraṃ khātmakaṃ khajam ,
khaṃ ca nānyatparaṃ jātu saṃdeho'styupapattitaḥ 3

3. śrīvasiṣṭhaḥ uvāca dṛśyam jāgrati
atha svapne khādhāram khātmakam
khajam kham ca na anyat param
jātu sandehaḥ asti upapattitaḥ

3. śrīvasiṣṭhaḥ uvāca jāgrati atha
svapne dṛśyam khādhāram khātmakam

3. Śrī Vasiṣṭha said: The perceived world, whether in the waking state or in a dream, has space as its foundation, is spatial in its essence, and originates from space. Indeed, it is nothing but space itself, never anything superior to it. Doubt arises from this logical reasoning.
