Verse 6.51.66

वासनान्तोऽस्य सौषुप्ती स्वप्ने विस्फुरति स्थितिः ।
घनवासनमोहोऽयं जीवः स्थावरतादिभाक् ॥ ६६ ॥

vāsanānto'sya sauṣuptī svapne visphurati sthitiḥ |
ghanavāsanamoho'yaṃ jīvaḥ sthāvaratādibhāk || 66 ||

The soul sleeps under the spell of its desires, and sees those objects in its dream, it wakes after their dispersion to the state of turya-felicity. The spell of gross desire, extends over all animate as well as in-animate creation.
