Verse 2.20.15

विदितवेद्यमिदं हि मनो मुनेर्विवशमेव हि याति परं पदम् ।
यदवबुद्धमखण्डितमुत्तमं तदवबोधवशान्न जहाति हि ॥ १५ ॥

viditavedyamidaṃ hi mano munervivaśameva hi yāti paraṃ padam |
yadavabuddhamakhaṇḍitamuttamaṃ tadavabodhavaśānna jahāti hi || 15 ||

The sage who has known the knowable, has his mind drawn insensibly to the blissful state; and that highest state of unbounded felicity being once known and felt (in the mind), it is hard to loose its impression at any time.
