Verse 6.65.5

परात्प्रस्पन्दितात्मेति न भिक्षू राम केवलम् ।
मोहान्मोहान्तरं याति जीवोऽहरहरेव नः ॥ ५ ॥

parātpraspanditātmeti na bhikṣū rāma kevalam |
mohānmohāntaraṃ yāti jīvo'harahareva naḥ || 5 ||

Now know, O Rama! that the souls of all of us like that of the mendicant, are vibrated and moved by the impulse of the supreme spirit;and are yet fallible in their nature, and falling from error to error every moment.
