Verse 6.51.61

ज्ञातप्रमाणो जीवोन्तर्यो जानातीह तन्मयः ।
पश्यतीमं भयं चैव सुदीर्घस्वप्नविभ्रमम् ॥ ६१ ॥

jñātapramāṇo jīvontaryo jānātīha tanmayaḥ |
paśyatīmaṃ bhayaṃ caiva sudīrghasvapnavibhramam || 61 ||

The soul that is acquainted with sastra, and knows the supreme spirit in itself, becomes full of the Deity; but the unintelligent soul sees only horrors rising before it, like spectres of his troublesome dreams.
