Verse 5.90.13

अयं सोहमयं नाहमिति चिन्ता नरोत्तमम् ।
खर्वीकरोति यं नान्तर्नष्टं तस्य मनो विदुः ॥ १३ ॥

ayaṃ sohamayaṃ nāhamiti cintā narottamam |
kharvīkaroti yaṃ nāntarnaṣṭaṃ tasya mano viduḥ || 13 ||

Know also that mind, to be as dull as dead, which is devoid of the sense of its individuality from others; and which is not degraded from the loftiness of its universality, to the meanness of its personality.
