Verse 5.90.21

मैत्र्यादयोऽथ मुदिताः शशाङ्क इव दीप्तयः ।
जीवन्मुक्तमनोनाशे सर्वदा सर्वथा स्थिताः ॥ २१ ॥

maitryādayo'tha muditāḥ śaśāṅka iva dīptayaḥ |
jīvanmuktamanonāśe sarvadā sarvathā sthitāḥ || 21 ||

But when the living liberated person loses the individuality of his mind; and becomes as gladsome as moonbeams within himself, by virtue of his universal benevolence; it then becomes as expanded and extended, as it appears to be present everywhere at all times.
