Verse 6.124.9

अजस्रं यं यमेवार्थं पतत्यक्षगणोऽनघ ।
बध्यते तत्र रागेण तत्रारागेण मुच्यते ॥ ९ ॥

ajasraṃ yaṃ yamevārthaṃ patatyakṣagaṇo'nagha |
badhyate tatra rāgeṇa tatrārāgeṇa mucyate || 9 ||

Anything to which the senses are addicted at all times, serves to bind the soul the more that it has its zest for the same; as also to unbind and release the mind in proportion to the distaste which it bears to it.
