Mantra 12

याज्ञवल्क्येति होवाच यत्रायं पुरुषो म्रियते ।किमेनं न जहातीति ।नामेति ।अनन्तं वै नामानन्ता विश्वे देवाः ।अनन्तमेव स तेन लोकं जयति ॥३,२.१२ ॥

In plain words

"Yājñavalkya," he said, "when a man dies, what does not leave him?" "Name. For name is endless and the All-gods are endless; and by it he wins an endless world."
