10.5.4.16
tadeṣa śloko bhavati vidyayā tadārohanti yatra kāmāḥ parāgatāḥ na tatra dakṣiṇā yanti nāvidvāṃsastapasvina iti na haiva taṃ lokaṃ dakṣiṇābhirna tapasānevaṃvidaśnuta evaṃvidāṃ haiva sa lokaḥ
Regarding this there is this verse--'By knowledge they ascend that (state) where desires have vanished: sacrificial gifts go not thither, nor the fervid practisers of rites without knowledge;'--for, indeed, he who does not know this does not attain to that world either by sacrificial gifts or by devout practices, but only to those who know does that world belong.
