2.3.4
ataḥ saṃprāpyate svargo suktimasmātprayānti vai /
tiryaktvaṃ narakaṃ cāpi yāntyataḥ puruṣā mune //
From this region heaven is obtained, or even, in some cases, liberation from existence; or men pass from hence into the condition of brutes, or fall into hell. Heaven, emancipation, a state in mid-air, or in the subterraneous realms, succeeds to existence here, and the world of acts is not the title of any other portion of the universe.
