Verse 7.84.36

चिद्रूपस्य तथाप्यन्तः सत्संकल्पपुरं भवेत् ।
दृढध्यानाद्विशुद्धायाश्चितेर्भवतु सा कथम् ॥ ३६ ॥

cidrūpasya tathāpyantaḥ satsaṃkalpapuraṃ bhavet |
dṛḍhadhyānādviśuddhāyāściterbhavatu sā katham || 36 ||

But those thoughts are false, which enter into the mind from without, as the whole body (lit. city of our desires and false imaginations); and the fallacies of these are removed upon our right reflection and by means of our sound judgment.
