Verse 7.169.34

अणीयसामणीयांसं स्थविष्ठं च स्थवीयसाम् ।
कृत्वात्मानं नभःशय्यं हा शेते सुखमात्मवान् ॥ ३४ ॥

aṇīyasāmaṇīyāṃsaṃ sthaviṣṭhaṃ ca sthavīyasām |
kṛtvātmānaṃ nabhaḥśayyaṃ hā śete sukhamātmavān || 34 ||

The self-possest rest in perfect peace of their minds, who bemean themselves as the meanest of the mean in their outer demeanour; but deem themselves as the greatest of the great in the greatness of their souls; they have their repose in the lap of the vast void of their selves.
