8.3.1

ta ime satyāḥ kāmā anṛtāpidhānāḥ \
teṣāṃ satyānāṃ satām anṛtam apidhānam \
yo yo hy asyetaḥ praiti na tam iha darśanāya labhate \\803.1\

1. These same are real desires (satya kāma) with a covering of what is false. Although they are real, there is a covering that is false.

Robert Ernest Hume 1921, The Thirteen Principal Upanishads

For truly, whoever of one's [fellows] departs hence, one does not get him [back] to look at here. 2. But those of one's [fellows] who are alive there, and those who have departed, and whatever else one desires but does not get—all this one finds by going in there [i.e. in the Soul]; for there, truly, are those real desires of his which have a covering of what is false.
