जीवाणूनां तथैवान्तर्मिथ्यासंसरणोदयः ।
बन्धोस्य वासनाबन्धो मोक्षः स्याद्वासनालयः ॥ ६५ ॥

jīvāṇūnāṃ tathaivāntarmithyāsaṃsaraṇodayaḥ |
bandhosya vāsanābandho mokṣaḥ syādvāsanālayaḥ || 65 ||

In the same manner you see the atoms of human souls, full with the vanities of this world; it is by the fetters of its worldly desires, and gets its release by the breaking off those bonds of its desire.
