Verse
गुणानेतानतीत्य त्रीन् देही देहसमुद्भवान् ।जन्ममृत्युजरादुःखैर् विमुक्तोऽमृतमश्नुते ॥
When the soul thus rises above the three gunas born of the embodiment in Nature, he is freed from subjection to birth and death and their concomitants, decay, old age and suffering, and enjoys in the end the Immortality of its self-existence.
Gītā 14·20
