Verse 5.72.36

तदृश्यवलितं बन्धस्तन्मुक्तं मुक्तिरुच्यते ।
दृश्यदर्शनसंबन्धसुखसंविदनामया ॥ ३६ ॥

tadṛśyavalitaṃ bandhastanmuktaṃ muktirucyate |
dṛśyadarśanasaṃbandhasukhasaṃvidanāmayā || 36 ||

Hence the attachment of our mind to the visibles, is called its bondage; and its detachment from them, is said to be its freedom; the former is pleasant to the sensuous body, and the latter is delightsome to the conscious soul.
