Verse 7.190.33

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
कारणस्यैव निकषं पृच्छ माऽऽकारणक्षयात् ।
परे स्वभावेऽनिर्वाच्ये स्वयं विश्रान्तिमैष्यसि ॥ ३३ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
kāraṇasyaiva nikaṣaṃ pṛccha mā''kāraṇakṣayāt |
pare svabhāve'nirvācye svayaṃ viśrāntimaiṣyasi || 33 ||

Vasishtha replied:—Do not desist, O Rama, from making your inquiries concerning the causality of Brahma; until you are satisfied with the proof of his causelessness, as they test the purity of gold on the stone; and then by knowing this, you will be able to repose yourself, in the blissful state of the supremely Blest.
