Verse 3.66.25

आत्मैव भाति जगदित्युदितस्तरङ्गैः कल्पान्त एक इव वारिधिरप्रमेयः ।
ज्ञातः स एव हि ददाति विमोक्षसिद्धिं त्वज्ञात एव मनसे चिरबन्धनाय ॥ २५ ॥

ātmaiva bhāti jagadityuditastaraṅgaiḥ kalpānta eka iva vāridhiraprameyaḥ |
jñātaḥ sa eva hi dadāti vimokṣasiddhiṃ tvajñāta eva manase cirabandhanāya || 25 ||

It is the Spirit of God alone, that abides in everything in these phenomenal worlds, which rise to view like the waves of the waters of the great deluge. It is his knowledge that is attended with the summum bonum of liberation, and it is ignorance of that supreme Being, that binds the mind to the interminable bondage of the world.
