The thirteen / Chāndogya Upanishad / Adhyāya 8 · Khaṇḍa 4

CHĀNDOGYA UPANISHAD · 8.4.1

अथ य आत्मा स सेतुर् धृतिर् एषां लोकानाम् असंभेदाय ।
नैतं सेतुम् अहोरात्रे तरतो न जरा न मृत्युर् न शोको न सुकृतम् ।
सर्वे पाप्मानो ऽतो निवर्तन्ते ।
अपहतपाप्मा ह्य् एष ब्रह्मलोकः ॥

atha ya ātmā sa setur dhṛtir eṣāṃ lokānām asaṃbhedāya ।
naitaṃ setum ahorātre tarato na jarā na mṛtyur na śoko na sukṛtam ।
sarve pāpmāno ’to nivartante ।
apahatapāpmā hy eṣa brahmalokaḥ ॥

That Self is a bank, a boundary, so that these worlds may not be confounded. Day and night do not pass that bank, nor old age, death, and grief; neither good nor evil deeds. All evil-doers turn back from it, for the world of Brahman is free from all evil.

F. Max Müller · The Upanishads, Sacred Books of the East 1 (1879)
