Verse 7.85.26

चितिनिर्वाणरूपं यत्प्रकृतिः परमं पदम् ।
प्राप्य तत्तामवाप्नोति सरिदब्धाविवाब्धिताम् ॥ २६ ॥

citinirvāṇarūpaṃ yatprakṛtiḥ paramaṃ padam |
prāpya tattāmavāpnoti saridabdhāvivābdhitām || 26 ||

When the ignorant mind, comes to know the supreme felicity, which attends on the state of its self-extinction or nirvana; it is ready to resort to it, as the inland stream runs to join the boundless sea.
