State of God-realization: Wisdom and the Self
एषा ब्राह्मी स्थितिः पार्थ नैनां प्राप्य विमुह्यति।
स्थित्वाऽस्यामन्तकालेऽपि ब्रह्मनिर्वाणमृच्छति॥ २.७२ ॥
eṣhā brāhmī sthitiḥ pārtha naināṁ prāpya vimuhyati
sthitvāsyām anta-kāle ’pi brahma-nirvāṇam ṛichchhati
Translation
O Arjuna! This is the state of the Self, the Supreme Spirit, to which, if one attains, it shall never be taken away. Even at the time of leaving the body, one will remain firmly enthroned there and become one with the Eternal.
