योगवासिष्ठः yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-6, chapter-49, verse-32

अबोधादेतयोर्भेदो बोधेनैव विलीयते ।
अबोधात्सन्मयो याति रज्ज्वां सर्पभ्रमो यथा ॥ ३२ ॥

abodhādetayorbhedo bodhenaiva vilīyate ,
abodhātsanmayo yāti rajjvāṃ sarpabhramo yathā 32

32. abodhāt etayoḥ bhedaḥ bodhena eva vilīyate
abodhāt sanmayaḥ yāti rajjvām sarpabhramaḥ yathā

32. etayoḥ bhedaḥ abodhāt (bhavati); bodhena eva vilīyate.
yathā rajjvām sarpabhramaḥ abodhāt (bhavati),
(tathā) sanmayaḥ abodhāt yāti.

32. The distinction between these two (the self and nature) arises from ignorance and dissolves only through knowledge. Just as the delusion of a snake (sarpabhrama) in a rope occurs due to ignorance, so too, due to ignorance, the truly existing (reality) appears as something other than itself.
