Verse 5.27.13

चिदस्तीह द्वितीया हि कल्पनैव न विद्यते ।
द्वित्वस्यासंभवाल्लोके कः शत्रुः कश्च वा सुहृत् ॥ १३ ॥

cidastīha dvitīyā hi kalpanaiva na vidyate |
dvitvasyāsaṃbhavālloke kaḥ śatruḥ kaśca vā suhṛt || 13 ||

The intellect being the sole existence, it is in vain to suppose aught besides; and their being naught otherwise, there can be no difference of a friend or foe to us.
