यात्रामण्डलचिन्ता
निग्रहानुग्रहेऽशक्तः सर्वेषामपि यो भवेत् ।उदासीनः स कथितो बलवान्पृथिवीपतिः ॥ १९ ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 233, verse 19.
The one who cannot hold back or favour any of them is called the Udasina (the neutral king). He is a strong king.
Simple meaning: A strong king who does not hold back or help anyone is called the neutral king.
न कस्यचिद्रिपुर्मित्रं कारणाच्छत्रुमित्रके ।
No one is a born enemy or friend. Reasons make them so. The circle has twelve kings.
त्रिविधा रिपवो ज्ञेयाः कुल्यानन्तरकृत्रिमाः ।
There are three kinds of enemy: of the family, next door and made. The first is the hardest.
अनन्तरोऽपि यः शत्रुः सोऽपि मे कृत्रिमो मतः ।
Even a next-door enemy is a made enemy. The enemy has his own friends and enemies too.
