Verse 3.66.15

चिच्चेतनेन चेत्यत्वमेत्येवं पश्यति भ्रमम् ।
जातो जीवामि पश्यामि संसरामीत्यसन्मयम् ॥ १५ ॥

ciccetanena cetyatvametyevaṃ paśyati bhramam |
jāto jīvāmi paśyāmi saṃsarāmītyasanmayam || 15 ||

The perfected understanding finds the errors, to which it is exposed by its sensation of the sensibles; and comes to know, that birth and life and all the acts and sights of the living state, are as false as dreams.
