Verse 3.57.15

आतिवाहिकदेहेन दृश्यं यदवलोकितम् ।
भूम्यादि नाम तस्यैव कृतं तच्चाधिभौतिकम् ॥ १५ ॥

ātivāhikadehena dṛśyaṃ yadavalokitam |
bhūmyādi nāma tasyaiva kṛtaṃ taccādhibhautikam || 15 ||

The spiritual bodies also, are sometimes liable to fall into error, and think themselves as corporeal bodies, as we mistake a rope for the serpent.
