Verse 104.9
बाहेत्व सर्वपापकानि विमलो साधुसमाहितो स्थितात्मा ।
संसारम् अवेत्य केवलं उषितवां क्षीणपुनर्भवो स ब्रह्मा ॥ ९ ॥
bāhetva sarvapāpakāni vimalo sādhusamāhito sthitātmā |
saṃsāram avetya kevalaṃ uṣitavāṃ kṣīṇapunarbhavo sa brahmā || 9 ||
He who has kept away from all sins, who is stainless, well-composed and steadfast; he who has passed beyond the whole round of recurrent life, who has lived his life, and is no longer liable to rebirth—he is a brahman. (9)
