Verse 6.57.8

तेनेह वासनाभावो बोधात्संपन्न एव ते ।
यो न निर्वासनो नूनं सर्वधर्मपरोऽपि सन् ॥ ८ ॥

teneha vāsanābhāvo bodhātsaṃpanna eva te |
yo na nirvāsano nūnaṃ sarvadharmaparo'pi san || 8 ||

It is owing to your ignorance of this, that your concupiscence has become congenial with your nature; which it is hard for it to get rid of, notwithstanding its being fraught with every virtue.
