Verse 6.23.35

न वरमाधिमयं चिरजीवितं न च वरं मरणं दृढमूढता ।
न च वरं नरको न च विष्टपं स्थितिमुपैति हि न क्वचिदाशयः ॥ ३५ ॥

na varamādhimayaṃ cirajīvitaṃ na ca varaṃ maraṇaṃ dṛḍhamūḍhatā |
na ca varaṃ narako na ca viṣṭapaṃ sthitimupaiti hi na kvacidāśayaḥ || 35 ||

It is of no good to live long, under the trouble of disease and the sorrow of life. Neither is life or death, nor learning nor ignorance, nor heaven or hell any advantage or disadvantage to any body, until there is an end of his desires within himself.
