Verse 6.69.26

मनोभवस्तु संसारः क्व ममाहं क्व संततिः ।
उपदेश्योपदेशादिबन्धमोक्षौ च तत्कुतः ॥ २६ ॥

manobhavastu saṃsāraḥ kva mamāhaṃ kva saṃtatiḥ |
upadeśyopadeśādibandhamokṣau ca tatkutaḥ || 26 ||

The world is the production of the mind, else what am I and who is mine or my offspring; it is custom and our education that have caused the bugbears of our bondage and liberation, which are nothing in reality.
