Verse 6.3.20

यन्नास्ति तस्य सद्भावप्रतिपत्तिरुदाहृता ।
मायेति सा परिज्ञानादेव नश्यत्यसंशयम् ॥ २० ॥

yannāsti tasya sadbhāvapratipattirudāhṛtā |
māyeti sā parijñānādeva naśyatyasaṃśayam || 20 ||

The belief in one's personality, is as false as one's faith in an unreality, which does not exist; and this wrong notion of its existence, is removed only by one's knowledge of the error, and his riddance from it.
