यदा चिच्चेतति द्वित्वं तदा द्वैतैक्यविभ्रमः ।
यदा न चेतति द्वैतं तदा द्वैतैक्ययोः क्षयः ॥ १० ॥

yadā ciccetati dvitvaṃ tadā dvaitaikyavibhramaḥ |
yadā na cetati dvaitaṃ tadā dvaitaikyayoḥ kṣayaḥ || 10 ||

When the intellect thinks of another thing (as matter) beside itself, it then falls into the error of dualism; but when it concentrates its thoughts in itself, it then loses the sense of the objective duality.
