Verse 6.85.118

वस्तुनः श्लेषमात्रेण घनरञ्जितमेति धीः ।
गतेऽपि वस्तुनि दृढं बुद्धिर्यत्परितापिता ॥ ११८ ॥

vastunaḥ śleṣamātreṇa ghanarañjitameti dhīḥ |
gate'pi vastuni dṛḍhaṃ buddhiryatparitāpitā || 118 ||

But it is not so with the intelligent knower of truth (tatwajna), whose soul is free from all inward and outward impressions in his life time; and whose mind is never tinged like that of the ignorant, by the reflection of anything about him.
