कार्यकारणकर्तृत्वहेयादेयदृशोज्झितः ।
सदेह इव निर्देहः ससंसारोऽप्यसंसृतिः ॥ ४५ ॥

kāryakāraṇakartṛtvaheyādeyadṛśojjhitaḥ |
sadeha iva nirdehaḥ sasaṃsāro'pyasaṃsṛtiḥ || 45 ||

The soul that takes no notice of the cause or effect or doing of any thing, as also of what is to be avoided or accepted (i. e. which remains totally indifferent to every thing), is said to be disembodied though encumbered with a body, and to become unworldly in its worldly state.
