Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 2, Verse 20
न जायते म्रियते वा कदाचि न्नायं भूत्वा भविता वा न भूयः।अजो नित्यः शाश्वतोऽयं पुराणो न हन्यते हन्यमाने शरीरे ॥2.20॥na jāyate mriyate vā kadāci nnāyaṃ bhūtvā bhavitā vā na bhūyaḥajo nityaḥ śāśvato'yaṃ purāṇo na hanyate hanyamāne śarīre
Meaning
Krishna says: the self is never born and never dies. It did not come into being, and it will not stop being. Unborn, eternal, everlasting and ancient, it is not killed when the body is killed.
हिंदी में अर्थ
श्रीकृष्ण कहते हैं: आत्मा न कभी जन्म लेती है, न कभी मरती है। यह न कभी बनी, न आगे कभी मिटेगी। यह अजन्मा, नित्य, शाश्वत और पुरातन है; शरीर के मरने पर भी यह नहीं मरती।
