Verse 5.13.19

नाहमस्ति न चान्योस्ति नच नास्तीति भावितम् ।
मनः प्रशान्तिमायातं नोपादेयेषु मज्जति ॥ १९ ॥

nāhamasti na cānyosti naca nāstīti bhāvitam |
manaḥ praśāntimāyātaṃ nopādeyeṣu majjati || 19 ||

Neither think of the entity nor non-entity of thyself or others; but preserve the tranquillity of thy mind from both the thoughts of positive and negative existences; in order to get rid of thy sense of distinction between the producer and the produced.
