9.49.48

tataḥ siddhāsta ūcurhi devalaṃ punareva ha |
na devala gatistatra tava gantuṃ tapodhana |
brahmaṇaḥ sadanaṃ vipra jaigīṣavyo yadāptavān || 48 ||

Vaishampayana continued, "Hearing these words of those Siddhas residing in the regions of the Brahmasatris, Asita endeavoured to soar aloft but he soon fell down. The Siddhas then, once more addressing Devala, said unto him, 'Thou, O Devala, art not competent to proceed thither, to the abode of Brahman, whither Jaigishavya hath gone!'"
