Your face is turned toward every side. Everywhere you pass, the all-protecting. May the Lord burn away our sin!<\/p>\n
Rig Veda I, 97, 6<\/p>\n
O God, whose face shines every side, convey us safely as in a boat. May the Lord burn away our sin!<\/p>\n
Rig Veda I, 97, 7<\/p>\n
Yajnavalkya continued: Now, when that self becomes weak and unconscious, as it were, the organs gather around it. Having wholly seized these particles of light, the self comes to the heart. When the presiding deity of the eye turns back from all sides,the dying man fails to notice colour.<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad IV, IV-Death and the Hereafter, 1<\/p>\n
The eye becomes united with the subtle body; then people say: ’He does not see.’ The nose becomes united with the subtle body; then they say: ’He does not smell.’ The tongue becomes united with the subtle body; then they say: ’He does not taste.’ The vocal organ becomes united with the subtle body; then they say: ’He does not speak.’ The ear becomes united with the subtle body; then they say: ’He does not hear.’ The mind becomes united with the subtle body; then they say: ’He does not think.’ The skin becomes united with the subtle body; then they say: ’He does not touch.’<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad IV, IV-Death and the Hereafter, 2<\/p>\n
The intellect becomes united with the subtle body; then they say: ’He does not know.’ The upper end of the heart lights up and by that light the self departs, either through the eye or through the head or through any other part (aperture) of the body. And when the self departs, the vital breath follows and when the vital breath departs, all the organs follow. Then the self becomes endowed with a particular consciousness and passes on to the body to be attained by that consciousness. Knowledge, work and past experience follow the self.<\/p>\n
