Verse 6.87.25

यस्य मौर्ख्यं क्षयं यातं सर्वं ब्रह्मेति भावनात् ।
नोदेति वासना तस्य प्राज्ञस्येवाम्बुधिर्मरौ ॥ २५ ॥

yasya maurkhyaṃ kṣayaṃ yātaṃ sarvaṃ brahmeti bhāvanāt |
nodeti vāsanā tasya prājñasyevāmbudhirmarau || 25 ||

So it is to the gnostic theist, whose ignorance is altogether removed by his knowledge of all things as the Divine spirit; such a man of course has no desire rising in his mind, as there is no appearance of the sea in the sands before the eyes of the wise.
