Verse 7.207.5

विदमेव विदुर्देहं स्वप्नादावितरेतरा ।
संवित्काचित्संभवति न चान्यास्ति शरीरता ॥ ५ ॥

vidameva vidurdehaṃ svapnādāvitaretarā |
saṃvitkācitsaṃbhavati na cānyāsti śarīratā || 5 ||

It is this knowledge (or the idea) of a thing in the mind, either in waking or dreaming, that they call to be its body; hence it is this erroneous consciousness of anything, that is believed as its body, and there is nothing else beside this that they call a solid body.
