5.19.23

kalpāyuṣāṃ sthānajayāt punar-bhavāt kṣaṇāyuṣāṃ bhārata-bhūjayo varam /
kṣaṇena martyena kṛtaṃ manasvinaḥ sannyasya saṃyānty abhayaṃ padaṃ hareḥ //

23. Preferable to attainment of Swarga, the abode of those that live for a whole age (kalpa), and from which return to birth (Samsara) is inevitable, is the attainment to the land of Bharata with the shortest span of life; for here the thoughtful can in a moment get rid of the Karma done with the mortal body and permanently attain to the feet of Hari.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
