Bhagavad Gita 3.43
एवं बुद्धेः परं बुद्ध्वा संस्तभ्यात्मानमात्मना।जहि शत्रुं महाबाहो कामरूपं दुरासदम्॥
evaṃ buddheḥ paraṃ buddhvā saṃstabhyātmānamātmanā |jahi śatruṃ mahābāho kāmarūpaṃ durāsadam ||
Thus, knowing Him who is superior to the intellect and restraining the self by the Self, slay thou, O mighty-armed Arjuna, the enemy in the form of desire, hard to conquer.
Thus, O Mighty-Armed One, knowing Him to be beyond the intellect, and with His help, subdue your personal ego and kill your enemy, Desire, even though it is extremely difficult.
