Verse 6.78.31

यद्वै विज्ञेयतां कृत्वा न कश्चिद्धीयते पुनः ।
एते हि चिद्विलासान्ता मनोबुद्धीन्द्रियादयः ॥ ३१ ॥

yadvai vijñeyatāṃ kṛtvā na kaściddhīyate punaḥ |
ete hi cidvilāsāntā manobuddhīndriyādayaḥ || 31 ||

No one is disappointed in knowing the knowable, and what is worth knowing; and this is the knowledge of the intellectual soul and our contemplation of it. All other knowledge of the mind, understanding and the senses and all other things, are but leading steps to that ultimate end.
