Context:

उद्धरेदात्मनाऽऽत्मानं नात्मानमवसादयेत्।
आत्मैव ह्यात्मनो बन्धुरात्मैव रिपुरात्मनः ।।
One should save oneself by oneself; one should not lower oneself.
For oneself is truly one's own friend;
oneself is truly one's own enemy.
~ Shreemad Bhagvad Gita (Chapter 6, Verse 5)

बन्धुरात्माऽऽत्मनस्तस्य येनात्मैवात्मना जितः ।
अनात्मनस्तु शत्रुत्वे वर्तेतात्मैव शत्रुवत् ।।
Of him, by whom has been conquered his very self by the self,
his self is the friend of his self. But, for one who has not conquered
his self, the self itself acts inimically like an enemy.
~ Shreemad Bhagvad Gita (Chapter 6, Verse 6)

जितात्मनः प्रशान्तस्य परमात्मा समाहितः ।
शीतोष्णसुखदुःखेषु तथा मानापमानयोः ।।
The supreme Self of one who has control over the aggregate of
his body and organs, and who is tranquil, becomes manifest.
He should be equipoised.
in the midst of cold and heat, happiness and sorrow,
as also honor and dishonor.
~ Shreemad Bhagvad Gita (Chapter 6, Verse 7)
