Verse 5.16.8

इत्यन्तर्निश्चयं कृत्वा विचार्य मनसा सह ।
नाहं पदार्थस्य न मे पदार्थ इति भाविते ॥ ८ ॥

ityantarniścayaṃ kṛtvā vicārya manasā saha |
nāhaṃ padārthasya na me padārtha iti bhāvite || 8 ||

But this internal conviction being weighed well by the light of reason, will prove that neither am I related with the external body, nor does it bear any relation with my internal soul.
