He reaches the highest goal who casts off his body and departs, by stopping all passages (senses), confining the mind within itself, placing his own life-breath between the eyebrows, adhering to uninterrupted meditation, uttering the one syllable Om which is Brahma, and thinking Me.
सर्वद्वाराणि संयम्य मनो हृदि निरुध्य च। मूर्ध्याधायात्मनः प्राणमास्थितो योगधारणाम्॥ ओमित्येकाक्षरं ब्रह्म व्याहरन् मामनुस्मरन्। यः प्रयाति त्यजन् देहं स याति परमां गतिम्॥
