Verse 6.52.2

न पुंस इव जीवस्य स्वप्नः संभवति क्वचित् ।
तेनैते जाग्रतो भावा जाग्रत्स्वप्नकृतोऽत्र हि ॥ २ ॥

na puṃsa iva jīvasya svapnaḥ saṃbhavati kvacit |
tenaite jāgrato bhāvā jāgratsvapnakṛto'tra hi || 2 ||

But as it is not likely that the living souls of men should be always asleep; therefore their waking state is to be accounted as one of dreaming also.
