Verse 7.100.9

बोधाच्चेत्संविदो जातः स दुःखी पुरुषो भवेत् ।
विरुद्धं वेदनं यावत्तावज्जीवोऽङ्ग तन्मयः ॥ ९ ॥

bodhāccetsaṃvido jātaḥ sa duḥkhī puruṣo bhavet |
viruddhaṃ vedanaṃ yāvattāvajjīvo'ṅga tanmayaḥ || 9 ||

If our perceptions are to produce our consciousness, then must man be very miserable indeed; because the sense of a feeling, other [than] that of the ever felicitous state of the soul, is what actually makes us so.
