ye ye kāmā durlabhā martyaloke sarvān kāmāṃś chandataḥ prārthayasva /
imā rāmāḥ sarathāḥ satūryā na hīdṛśā lambhanīyā manuṣyaiḥ /
ābhir matprattābhiḥ paricārayasva naciketo maraṇaṃ mānuprākṣīḥ ///1,1.25 //
25. Whatever desires are difficult to realise in the land of mortals, ask, as thou likest, for all such desired objects. These nymphs have their chariots and lutes; and women like these are not enjoyable by mortals; with these, by me given, have thy services performed. Oh Nachiketas, do not ask about death.
