Verse 3.122.11
यावन्न कुर्वन्नपि व्यवहरन्नप्यसत्येषु संसारवस्तुषु स्थितोऽपि स्वात्मन्येव क्षीणमनस्त्वादभ्यासवशाद्बाह्यं वस्तु कुर्वन्नपि न पश्यति नालम्बनेन सेवते नाभिध्यायति तनुवासनत्वाच्च केवलं मूढः सुप्तप्रबुद्ध इव कर्तव्यं करोति ॥ ११ ॥
yāvanna kurvannapi vyavaharannapyasatyeṣu saṃsāravastuṣu sthito'pi svātmanyeva kṣīṇamanastvādabhyāsavaśādbāhyaṃ vastu kurvannapi na paśyati nālambanena sevate nābhidhyāyati tanuvāsanatvācca kevalaṃ mūḍhaḥ suptaprabuddha iva kartavyaṃ karoti || 11 ||

And whether sitting inactive in his posture of Samadhi meditation, or doing anything for himself or others, he must fix his mind to whatever is productive of real good to the world. His soul being cool by the tenuity of his desires, is habituated to do its duties, without the knowledge of what it is doing.
