योगवासिष्ठः       yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-6, chapter-6, verse-16

मनागपि न सन्तीह तस्मात्त्वं निर्वृतो भव ।
स्थितो देहतयाप्युच्चैः पातोत्पातमयो भ्रमः ॥ १६ ॥
manāgapi na santīha tasmāttvaṃ nirvṛto bhava ,
sthito dehatayāpyuccaiḥ pātotpātamayo bhramaḥ 16
16. manāk api na santi iha tasmāt tvam nirvṛtaḥ bhava
sthitaḥ dehatayā api uccaiḥ pātotpātamayaḥ bhramaḥ
16. iha manāk api na santi tasmāt tvam nirvṛtaḥ bhava
dehatayā api sthitaḥ uccaiḥ pātotpātamayaḥ bhramaḥ
16. Therefore, since these [qualities like old age and death mentioned previously] are not present here [in the self (ātman)] even slightly, you should become liberated (nirvṛta). This powerful illusion (bhrama), characterized by constant rise and fall, persists even while one is identified with the body.
