When one has understood the injunction of the Shrutis that lead to correct conclusion (about Brahma) and has practised those auspicious virtues which the same and other Scriptures teach, one may lie down at ease, disregarding the fears of decrepitude and death. When both merits and demerits disappear, and the fruits, in the form of joy and sorrow, originating therefrom, and destroyed, men, unattached to everything, seek refuge at first with personal Brahma, and then behold impersonal Brahma in their understandings.
श्रुतिप्रमाणागममङ्गलैच शेते जरामृत्युभयादभीतः। क्षीणे च पुण्ये विगते च पापे ततो निमित्ते च फले विनष्टे। मास्थाय पश्यन्ति महत्यसक्ताः॥
