You are not apart from me, or I from you

ममैव त्वं तवैवाहं ये मदीयास्तवैव ते । 
यस्त्वां द्वेष्टि स मां द्वेष्टि यस्त्वामनु स मामनु ॥
                                    महाभारत वनपर्व १२.४५

You belong to me, and I to you. All that is mine is yours, too.
He who is your enemy is mine too, and he who is dear to you, is dear to me.
Bhagavan and devotees

 
नरस्त्वमसि दुर्द्धर्ष हरिर्नारायणो ह्यहम् ।
 काले लोकमिमं प्राप्तौ नरनारायणावृषी ॥ 

You are Nara, O Arjuna, and I am Hari Narayana.
We, the sages Nara-Narayana, have come to this world for a purpose (at the right time).

अनन्यः पार्थ मत्तस्त्वं त्वत्तश्चाहं तथैव च । 
नावयोरन्तरं शक्यं वेदितुं भरतर्षभ ॥
                               महाभारत वनपर्व १२.४६ - ४७

Arjuna (son of Pritha), You are not apart from me, or I from you (i.e., we are one). No one is capable of understanding this difference between us, O Arjuna (Best of the Bharat Dynasty).

(Comment: In the second line, does it mean lack of difference).
