Verse 6.65.8

परिपश्यति जीवोऽन्तर्मायया जर्जरीकृतः ।
क्वचित्केनचिदेवेह कदाचिदपि वा स्वयम् ॥ ८ ॥

paripaśyati jīvo'ntarmāyayā jarjarīkṛtaḥ |
kvacitkenacideveha kadācidapi vā svayam || 8 ||

The soul thus obscured under the illusion of errors, happens some times to come to the light of truth, either by the guidance of some good instructor, or by the light of its own intuition;and then it is released from the wrong notion of its personality in the body, and comes to the true knowledge of itself.
