Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 8, Verse 16

Krishna said

आब्रह्मभुवनाल्लोकाः पुनरावर्तिनोऽर्जुन।मामुपेत्य तु कौन्तेय पुनर्जन्म न विद्यते ॥8.16॥

ābrahmabhuvanāllokāḥ punarāvartino'rjunamāmupetya tu kaunteya punarjanma na vidyate

Meaning

All worlds, even up to the realm of Brahma the creator, are subject to return into rebirth, Arjuna. But for one who reaches me, there is no rebirth.

हिंदी में अर्थ

हे अर्जुन, ब्रह्मा के लोक तक सभी लोकों से जीव को फिर लौटकर जन्म लेना पड़ता है। लेकिन हे कौन्तेय, जो मुझे प्राप्त कर लेता है, उसका पुनर्जन्म नहीं होता।
