Verse
कच्चिन्नोभयविभ्रष्टश् छिन्नाभ्रमिव नश्यति ।अप्रतिष्ठो महाबाहो विमूढो ब्रह्मणः पथि ॥
Does he not, O mighty-armed, lose both this life (of human activity and thought and emotion which it has left behind) and the Brahmic consciousness to which it aspires and failing from both perish like a dissolving cloud?
Gītā 6·38
