Annadāna and the Obstruction of Viṣṇu-Darśana; Vāmadeva’s Teaching and the Vāsudeva Stotra Prelude
युवाभ्यां हि प्रगंतव्यमितश्चैव न संशयः । उभाभ्यामपि भोक्तव्यं कायमक्षयमेव तत्
yuvābhyāṃ hi pragaṃtavyamitaścaiva na saṃśayaḥ | ubhābhyāmapi bhoktavyaṃ kāyamakṣayameva tat
നിങ്ങള് ഇരുവരും ഇവിടെ നിന്ന് തീര്ച്ചയായും പുറപ്പെടണം—ഇതില് സംശയമില്ല. ആ അക്ഷയപദം നിങ്ങള് ഇരുവരും അനുഭവിക്കേണ്ടതുതന്നെ.

It states that two individuals must leave the current place/situation, and that both will experience an imperishable (akṣaya) state as a result.
Akṣaya generally means “imperishable” or “non-diminishing,” often indicating an enduring reward, state, or abode that does not get exhausted like ordinary worldly merits.
