Verse 4.53.46

संकल्प्यते यथा यद्यत्तत्तथा भवति क्षणात् ।
मा किंचिदपि तत्त्वज्ञ संकल्पय कदाचन ॥ ४६ ॥

saṃkalpyate yathā yadyattattathā bhavati kṣaṇāt |
mā kiṃcidapi tattvajña saṃkalpaya kadācana || 46 ||

As the mind conceives a thing to be, so it perceives the same in actuality; therefore have no conception of anything, if you want to know the truth of it.
