मृतिब्रह्मत्वमायाते देहब्रह्मणि वै तथा ।
यथा चलाचले तोये त्वत्तामत्ते न तिष्ठतः ॥ २९ ॥

mṛtibrahmatvamāyāte dehabrahmaṇi vai tathā |
yathā calācale toye tvattāmatte na tiṣṭhataḥ || 29 ||

All persons returning to Brahma after their death, have their bodies also reduced into Him and retain their personal identity in Him in the same manner, as the moving and unmoving waters rest alike in the sea.
