The works of Ādi Śaṅkarācārya

Chāndogyopaniṣadbhāṣyam

Verse 407

न वधेनास्य हन्यते नास्य स्राम्येणस्रामो घ्नन्ति त्वेवैनं विच्छादयन्तीवाप्रि-यवेत्तेव भवत्यपि रोदितीव नाहमत्र भो-ग्यं पश्यामीति ॥ २ ॥

In plain words

By the destruction of the body, this Self is not destroyed; by its lameness, he is not made lame. Yet they seem to kill him, they seem to harass him; he seems to experience unpleasantness, he even seems to weep. "I see no real value in this," thought Indra.

Close to the Sanskrit

Not by the slaying of this is he slain, not by the lameness of this is he lame; they indeed slay him, they harass him as it were, he becomes a knower of unpleasantness as it were, he weeps as it were—I do not see any enjoyable thing in this, thus.
