Verse 3.91.53

यद्यद्यथा स्फुरति सुप्रतिभात्मचित्तं तत्तत्तथा भवति देहतयोदितात्म ।
देहोऽयमस्ति न न चाहमिति स्वरूपं विज्ञानमेकमवगम्य निरिच्छमास्स्व ॥ ५३ ॥

yadyadyathā sphurati supratibhātmacittaṃ tattattathā bhavati dehatayoditātma |
deho'yamasti na na cāhamiti svarūpaṃ vijñānamekamavagamya niricchamāssva || 53 ||

Whatever is represented in the mirror of the mind, the same appears in the figure of the body also. But as neither this body nor the egoism of any one, is lasting for ever, it is right to forsake our desires.
