Verse 6.10.29

आत्मदृष्टिरदृष्टैषा संसारभ्रमदायिनी ।
दृष्टा सती समग्राणां दुःखानां क्षयकारिणी ॥ २९ ॥

ātmadṛṣṭiradṛṣṭaiṣā saṃsārabhramadāyinī |
dṛṣṭā satī samagrāṇāṃ duḥkhānāṃ kṣayakāriṇī || 29 ||

It is our want of the sight of this invisible spiritual power, that leads us to erroneous conception of the entity of the external world, but a slight sight of this almighty Ens, removes all our pains in this scene of vanity.
