Bhagavad Gita 6.6 — Mind as friend or foe

बन्धुरात्मात्मनस्तस्य येनात्मैवात्मना जितः। अनात्मनस्तु शत्रुत्वे वर्तेतात्मैव शत्रुवत् ॥

bandhurātmātmanastasya yenātmaivātmanā jitaḥ | anātmanastu śatrutve vartetātmaiva śatruvat ||

Meaning

For one who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best friend. For one who has not, that same mind behaves like an enemy.
