श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
देशाद्देशान्तरं दूरं प्राप्तायाः संविदो वपुः ।
निमिषेणैव यन्मध्ये तद्रूपं परमात्मनः ॥ १९ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
deśāddeśāntaraṃ dūraṃ prāptāyāḥ saṃvido vapuḥ |
nimiṣeṇaiva yanmadhye tadrūpaṃ paramātmanaḥ || 19 ||

Vasishtha replied:—The Supreme soul is seen in the same way in ourselves and within our bodies, as we are conscious of our minds to be seated within us, after its flight to distant countries.
