Verse 7.38.32

दीपनिर्वाणनिर्वाणमस्तंगतमनोगतिम् ।
आत्मन्येव शमं यातं सन्तमेवामलं विदुः ॥ ३२ ॥

dīpanirvāṇanirvāṇamastaṃgatamanogatim |
ātmanyeva śamaṃ yātaṃ santamevāmalaṃ viduḥ || 32 ||

Our nirvana extinction is said to be the cessation of our mental actions, like the extinguishing of a burning flame or lamp; it is assimilation into the quiescent spirit of God, and continuance in the hebetude of a holy saint.
