Verse 7.125.56

चन्द्रोऽनुभवति व्यर्थमाकल्पं क्षयमक्षयम् ।
जीवन्मुक्ततया खिन्नो यथास्थितमवस्थितः ॥ ५६ ॥

candro'nubhavati vyarthamākalpaṃ kṣayamakṣayam |
jīvanmuktatayā khinno yathāsthitamavasthitaḥ || 56 ||

The moon also appears to be waning under her wasting disease, though she remains ever the same in all kalpa ages of the world; so the soul of the liberated person continues the same, though his body is subject to decay by age.
