dvayaṃ vā idaṃ na tṛtīyamasti | satyaṃ caivānṛtaṃ ca satyameva devā anṛtam manuṣyā idamahamanṛtātsatyamupaimīti tanmanuṣyebhyo devānupaiti

Twofold, verily, is this, there is no third, viz. truth and untruth. And verily the gods are the truth, and man is the untruth. Therefore in saying (Vâg. S. I, 5 b), 'I now enter from untruth into truth,' he passes from the men to the gods.
