Verse 7.68.30

आद्यं प्रत्यक्षमुत्सृज्य यः सत्येऽस्मिन्कृतस्थितिः ।
प्रत्यक्षे मृगतृष्णाम्बु पीत्वा स सुखमास्थितः ॥ ३० ॥

ādyaṃ pratyakṣamutsṛjya yaḥ satye'sminkṛtasthitiḥ |
pratyakṣe mṛgatṛṣṇāmbu pītvā sa sukhamāsthitaḥ || 30 ||

Therefore the yogi relies in his internal perception only, by rejecting those of his external senses; while the common sort are seen to run giddy, with drinking the vapours of the mirage of senses.
