3.2.13.p1

iti tṛtīyādhyāye dvitīyaṃ brāhmaṇam

'Yâjñavalkya,' said he, 'when the vocal organfootnote{All these refer to (the limited manifestations of) their presiding deities.} of a man who dies is merged in fire, the nose in air, the eye in the sun, the mind in the moon, the ear in the quarters, the body in the earth, the ether of the heart in the external ether, the hair on the body in the herbs, that on the head in the trees, and the blood and seed are deposited in water, where is then the man?' 'Give me your hand, dear Ârtabhâga, we will decide this between ourselves, we cannot do it in a crowd.’ They went out and talked it over. What they mentioned there was work, and what they praised there was also work. (Therefore) one becomes good through good work and evil through evil work. Thereupon Ârtabhâga, of the line of Jaratkâru, kept silent.
