Verse 2.2.7

सम्यक्पश्यति यस्तज्ज्ञो ज्ञातज्ञेयः स पण्डितः ।
न स्वदन्ते बलादेव तस्मै भोगा महात्मने ॥ ७ ॥

samyakpaśyati yastajjño jñātajñeyaḥ sa paṇḍitaḥ |
na svadante balādeva tasmai bhogā mahātmane || 7 ||

He who fully comprehends a thing, is said to know it, and who so knows what is knowable, is called a learned man; no earthly enjoyments can be delectable to such high minded men.
