द्वित्वैकत्वमती त्यक्त्वा शेषस्थः सुखितो भव ।
मा दुःखितो भव व्यर्थं त्वं मिथ्यापुरुषो यथा ॥ ८ ॥

dvitvaikatvamatī tyaktvā śeṣasthaḥ sukhito bhava |
mā duḥkhito bhava vyarthaṃ tvaṃ mithyāpuruṣo yathā || 8 ||

Avoid your dubiety of the unity and duality (i.e. of the singleness of the prime cause, and variety of its products); but remain firm in your belief of that state, which lasts after the loss of both (i.e. the one and all the same). Be happy with this belief, and never trouble yourself with thinking any thing otherwise like the false man in the tale.
