Verse 6.68.3

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
द्विविधः प्रोच्यते राम मुनिर्मुनिवरैरिह ।
एकः काष्ठतपस्वी स्याज्जीवन्मुक्तस्तथेतरः ॥ ३ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
dvividhaḥ procyate rāma munirmunivarairiha |
ekaḥ kāṣṭhatapasvī syājjīvanmuktastathetaraḥ || 3 ||

Vasishtha replied:—It is said to be of two kinds, by the mute like munis and the reserved sages of old; the practiced by the wood like statues of saints, and the other observed by those that are liberated in their life time.
