Verse 3.30.10

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
ससर्वावरणा एते महत्यन्तविवर्जिते ।
ब्रह्माण्डा भान्ति दुर्दृष्टेर्व्योम्नि केशोण्ड्रको यथा ॥ १० ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
sasarvāvaraṇā ete mahatyantavivarjite |
brahmāṇḍā bhānti durdṛṣṭervyomni keśoṇḍrako yathā || 10 ||

Vasishtha said:—There is but one space enveloping all things, and the worlds which are seen in the infinite and indiscernible womb of vacuity, are as worms moving on the surface of water.
