विभूति-योगः (Vibhūti-yoga) — Exemplary Manifestations as a Contemplative Index

शुक्लकृष्णे गती होते जगत: शाश्वते मते । एकया यात्यनावृत्तिमन्यया5<वर्तते पुन:,क्योंकि जगतके ये दो प्रकारके--शुक्ल और कृष्ण अर्थात्‌ देवयान और पितृयान मार्ग सनातन माने गये हैं।* इनमें एकके द्वारा गया हुआ“--जिससे वापस नहीं लौटना पड़ता, उस परम गतिको प्राप्त होता है और दूसरेके द्वारा गया हुआः फिर वापस आता है अर्थात्‌ जन्म-मृत्युको प्राप्त होता है

arjuna uvāca | śukla-kṛṣṇe gatī hī ete jagataḥ śāśvate mate | ekayā yāty anāvṛttim anyayā vartate punaḥ ||

Arjuna said: “These two courses of departure for the world—called the bright and the dark—are held to be eternal. By the one, a person goes to the state from which there is no return; by the other, one returns again, entering once more into the cycle of birth and death.”
