शरीरनाशे नाशश्चेच्चिन्मात्रस्य तदुच्यताम् ।
हर्षस्थाने विषादः किं मरणे संसृतिक्षये ॥ ५ ॥

śarīranāśe nāśaśceccinmātrasya taducyatām |
harṣasthāne viṣādaḥ kiṃ maraṇe saṃsṛtikṣaye || 5 ||

If the intellectual soul is destroyed at the destruction of the body, say then why should you lament at its loss, and not rejoice at its annihilation, which [releases] you from the pains of life?
