तथास्माच्चेतनाद्द्वैताद्बिभेति न बिभेति वा ।
अङ्गसंस्थाद्यथा चित्रात्स्वरूपात्पुरुषः स्वयम् ॥ २६ ॥

aṅgasaṃsthādyathā citrātsvarūpātpuruṣaḥ svayam || 26 ||

It is thus that the individual Intelligence, is apprehended as a duality by the unwise, but never by the intelligent; because ignorant men like silly infants are afraid of the tiger or snake that is painted upon their own person; but the intelligent knowing them too well to be marked upon their own bodies, never suspect them as anything otherwise than their own person.
