योगवासिष्ठः       yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-7, chapter-95, verse-14

एवमात्म क्वचिद्व्योम कचनात्माप्यहं नभः ।
परमेव निराकारं युष्मास्वाकारवानपि ॥ १४ ॥
evamātma kvacidvyoma kacanātmāpyahaṃ nabhaḥ ,
parameva nirākāraṃ yuṣmāsvākāravānapi 14
14. evam ātma kvacit vyoma kacana ātmā api aham
nabhaḥ param eva nirākāram yuṣmāsu ākāravān api
14. evam ātma kvacit vyoma,
kacana ātmā api aham nabhaḥ; [aham] param eva nirākāram [asmi],
api yuṣmāsu ākāravān [asmi]
14. Thus, sometimes the self (ātman) is space (vyoma), and at other times, even I (the ātman) am the sky (nabhaḥ). Though inherently supreme and formless (nirākāra), I am also endowed with form (ākāravān) for you all.
