Hi Harry,

     One of the discussions on FaceBook quotes this verse as Hanumān's
response to Rāma in the Adhyātma-Rāmāyaṇa.  Here is the discussion:

ज्ञानिनामग्रगण्य श्री हनुमान जी

अध्यात्म-रामायण में श्रीजानकी जी ने श्रीराम जी की प्रेरणा से श्रीहनुमानजी
को अध्यात्मतत्त्व का उपदेश दिया है | गोस्वामीजी का इन्हें
“ज्ञानिनामग्रगण्य” कहना कितना सारगर्भित है ? भगवान् श्रीराम के पूछनेपर –“
तू कौन है ?”, हनुमान जी उत्तर देते हैं –

“देहदृष्ट्या तु दासोऽहं जीवदृष्ट्या त्वदंशक: |
वस्तुतस्तु त्वमेवाहमिति मे निश्चिता मति: ||”


I don't have any verse index to Adhyātma-Rāmāyaṇa, or a searchable text.
Hopefully, you can find this verse there.  Best,
