योगवासिष्ठः yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-7, chapter-93, verse-64

मोहोऽद्य मान्यमायातो देहो नेहोपयुज्यते ।
अनास्थैवोत्तमावस्था स्थानास्थैवाधमा स्थितिः ॥ ६४ ॥

moho'dya mānyamāyāto deho nehopayujyate ,
anāsthaivottamāvasthā sthānāsthaivādhamā sthitiḥ 64

64. mohaḥ adya mānyam āyātaḥ dehaḥ na iha upayujyate anāsthā
eva uttamā avasthā sthāna-āsthā eva adhamā sthitiḥ

64. adya mohaḥ mānyam āyātaḥ.

64. Delusion has now become esteemed; this body is not useful in this world. Detachment (anāsthā) is indeed the highest state, while attachment to a place (sthānāsthā) is the lowest condition.

64. האשליה קיבלה עתה מעמד של כבוד, והגוף אינו מועיל כאן עוד. חוסר היצמדות הוא המצב הנשגב ביותר, בעוד שהיצמדות למקום או למעמד היא המצב הירוד ביותר.
