sa yasya kāmayate | tasya prāṇamādāyodeti sa mriyate sa yo haitam mṛtyumanatimucyāthāmuṃ lokameti yathā haivāsmiṃloke na saṃyatamādriyate yadā yadaiva kāmayate 'tha mārayatyevamu haivāmuṣmiṃloke punaḥpunareva pramārayati
And the breath of whomsoever he (the sun) wishes he takes and rises, and that one dies. And whosoever goes to yonder world not having escaped that Death, him he causes to die again and again in yonder world, even as, in this world, one regards not him that is fettered, but puts him to death whenever one wishes.
