Verse 3.57.24

द्रागित्येवाथवा कश्चिद्योगिदेहो न लक्ष्यते ।
योगिभिश्च पुरो वेगात्प्रोड्डीन इव खे खगः ॥ २४ ॥

drāgityevāthavā kaścidyogideho na lakṣyate |
yogibhiśca puro vegātproḍḍīna iva khe khagaḥ || 24 ||

No body can easily discern the features of a Yogi's body, nor are they discernible by other Yogis. They are as imperceptible as the features of a bird flying in the air.
