Verse 7.29.63

इति निश्चयवानन्तस्तज्ज्ञोऽज्ञ इव संज्ञया ।
चिद्वपुर्विद्यमानोऽपि शाम्यत्यसदिव स्वयम् ॥ ६३ ॥

iti niścayavānantastajjño'jña iva saṃjñayā |
cidvapurvidyamāno'pi śāmyatyasadiva svayam || 63 ||

He who is certain of this truth (that he is the intellect), knows himself in reality; but whoso thinks himself as somebody under a certain appellation, is far from knowing the truth. Again anyone remaining in his unreal body, but relying in his intellectuality, is sure to have his tranquillity and salvation.
