नास्ति बन्धो न मोक्षोऽस्ति तन्मयस्त्विव लक्ष्यते ।
ग्रस्तं नित्यमनित्येन मायामयमहो जगत् ॥ ६३ ॥

nāsti bandho na mokṣo'sti tanmayastviva lakṣyate |
grastaṃ nityamanityena māyāmayamaho jagat || 63 ||

There is no liberation nor bondage of the soul, which is the same with the Divine. It is this delusive world which shows the immortal soul under the veil of mortality, or as eclipsed by and under the shadow of temporary affairs.
