Verse 5.81.14

विचाराकारको मौर्ख्यादहमासं मितस्थितिः ।
विचारेणामिताकारः क्व नामाहं विचारकः ॥ १४ ॥

vicārākārako maurkhyādahamāsaṃ mitasthitiḥ |
vicāreṇāmitākāraḥ kva nāmāhaṃ vicārakaḥ || 14 ||

I considered myself as a limited and embodied being, as long as I was unable to reason about these abstruse subjects; and now I have come to know my unlimited form of the spirit;but what is this that I call "myself"is what I have not yet been able to know, since the whole is full with the one supreme spirit.
