Verse 5.68.3

अनन्तस्यात्मतत्त्वस्य सपर्यन्तत्वनिश्चये ।
यत्सुखार्थित्वमन्तः स सङ्गो बन्धार्ह उच्यते ॥ ३ ॥

anantasyātmatattvasya saparyantatvaniścaye |
yatsukhārthitvamantaḥ sa saṅgo bandhārha ucyate || 3 ||

Again the consideration of the infinite soul as a finite being, and confined in the limited confines of the body (under the impression of its being seated in the heart, and becoming extinct with it) leads to the bondage of the soul.
