अस्मीति प्रत्ययादन्तरहंकारश्च कथ्यते ।
चेतनाढ्यमृतं चित्तमिति शास्त्रविचारिभिः ॥ ६ ॥

asmīti pratyayādantarahaṃkāraśca kathyate |
cetanāḍhyamṛtaṃ cittamiti śāstravicāribhiḥ || 6 ||

The reliance in self that, “I am” is what is called egoism; and the principle of percipience called the mind by the vulgar, is when freed from everything, styled the intellect by the wise and those acquainted with the sastras.
