Verse 5.89.62

तदैव वीतहव्योऽसौ श्रृणु किं नोपशान्तवान् ।
देहमुत्सृज्य तत्त्वज्ञो ज्ञातज्ञेयवतां वरः ॥ ६२ ॥

tadaiva vītahavyo'sau śrṛṇu kiṃ nopaśāntavān |
dehamutsṛjya tattvajño jñātajñeyavatāṃ varaḥ || 62 ||

It was in this manner that this sage, who knew the truth, and was best acquainted with the knowledge of the knowable, left his earthy body, in order to find the rest of his soul in the Supreme Spirit.
