तथैव तादृशाचारो देहोऽयं मनसः स्मृतः ।
इदं धनमयं देहो देशोऽयमिति विभ्रमः ॥ २७ ॥

tathaiva tādṛśācāro deho'yaṃ manasaḥ smṛtaḥ |
idaṃ dhanamayaṃ deho deśo'yamiti vibhramaḥ || 27 ||

The body and the mind are known to be present with coeval with their actions, and they participate with one another in their mutual acts (without which they are said to be inexistent). Therefore it is erroneous to say that, I am this body and am situated here, and these things are mine, all which are illusory and caused by illusion.
