The Self 5: This Body, A Garment For Soul

On giving up the garments old, As people put on others new, So doth this body-bearer too— Take up new flesh in place of old. Worn out garments as man doth cast Aside, take new that would long last, So also, dresst in flesh and blood, The soul takes new in place of old. || 2.22 || Sanskrit text Vaasa&is jI8aRin y9a ivhaynvain gsi j$r%@ni yath@ vih@ya nav@ni g=h%@ti nara* apar@%i that@ shar$r@%i vih@ya j$r%@ni any@ni sa>y@ti nav@ni deh$ _________________________________________________________________ From among select verses on ‘Self, atman' from Bhagavad-Gita Sanskrit text: Fonts used (Hitarth Hin Jalak/ Hindi Saral-1/Shree-Guj-0768) Sanskrit Transliteration: Fonts used (Sanskrit Roman)
