<< Chapter 8 verses 14

Simple

mām upetya punar janma
duḥkhālayam aśāśvatam
nāpnuvanti mahātmānaḥ
saṁsiddhiṁ paramāṁ gatāḥ

‘By attaining Me, the noble souls, who have reached supreme perfection, shall not go back to re-birth —the home of woe,— and transient.’

Those who have attained Me, do not return to that impermanent condition, re-birth, the home of suffering. For they are: Mahātmas, noble-souled beings who are enlightened as to the real knowledge of My nature; those, who bear for Me such fervid love that in separatedness from Me, their very life becomes insupportable; those, whose heart and will are devoted to Me in love; those, whose Stay, I am; those, who by their meditating Me, have reached the highest perfection, —Myself.

Reason is next assigned, why the attainers of fortune return, and why the attainers of God do not return.

>> Chapter 8 verse 16
