Prashna Upanishad: Verse 1.16
तेषामसौ विरजो ब्रह्मलोको न येषु जिह्ममनृतं न माया चेति ॥१६॥
तेषाम् । असौ । विरजः । ब्रह्मलोकः । न । येषु । जिह्मम् । अनृतम् । न । माया । च । इति ॥१६॥
teṣām asau virajo brahmaloko na yeṣu jihmam anṛtaṃ na māyā ceti ||16||
Bagi mereka, tercapailah alam Brahman yang suci tanpa noda—iaitu bagi mereka yang tiada kelicikan, tiada kepalsuan, dan tiada lagi berlakunya māyā, sesungguhnya.
For them, that stainless world of Brahman (is attained)—for those in whom there is neither crookedness nor untruth, nor (the operation of) māyā, indeed.
- teṣām asau: external sandhi not applied (final -m before vowel may show anusvāra in some recensions). virajo brahmaloko: underlying virajaḥ brahmalokaḥ
- visarga before voiced consonant often realized as -o (jihvāmūlīya/visarga sandhi), hence virajo. māyā ceti: ca + iti → ceti (vowel sandhi: a + i = e)
