KAIVALYA UPANISHAD · 12

स एव मायापरिमोहितात्मा शरीरमास्थाय करोति सर्वम् ।
स्त्र्यन्नपानादिविचित्रभोगैः स एव जाग्रत्परितृप्तिमेति ॥ १२॥

sa eva māyāparimohitātmā śarīramāsthāya karoti sarvam ।
stryannapānādivicitrabhogaiḥ sa eva jāgratparitṛptimeti ॥ 12॥

“It is only He (Paramātmā) who, deluded by Māyā, assumes a body with the internal organs and does everything. It is only He who in the waking state is gratified with women, food, drink, and other diverse enjoyments.

K. Narayanasvami Aiyar · Thirty Minor Upanishads (1914), pp. 31–33
