Verse 76.140
येनेदं अपकृतं गर्भशय्यं अशेषं उच्छोषितो च से पुनः भवहेतुः सर्वं ।
उच्छोषिता तृषलता च दुःखस्य मूलं सो एष्यति बंधप्रमोक्षं करोन्तो लोके ॥ १४० ॥
yenedaṃ apakṛtaṃ garbhaśayyaṃ aśeṣaṃ ucchoṣito ca se punaḥ bhavahetuḥ sarvaṃ |
ucchoṣitā tṛṣalatā ca duḥkhasya mūlaṃ so eṣyati baṃdhapramokṣaṃ karonto loke || 140 ||
He who has done away with all rebirth, he in whom every source of becoming is dried up, he in whom the creepers of craving and the font of ill are dried up, will come and give release from bondage in the world.” (140)
