Chapter 8 · The Imperishable Absolute · Krishna said

Bhagavad Gita 8.11 — The imperishable goal

यदक्षरं वेदविदो वदन्ति विशन्ति यद्यतयो वीतरागाः। यदिच्छन्तो ब्रह्मचर्यं चरन्ति तत्ते पदं संग्रहेण प्रवक्ष्ये ॥

yadakṣaraṃ vedavido vadanti viśanti yadyatayo vītarāgāḥ | yadicchanto brahmacaryaṃ caranti tatte padaṃ saṃgraheṇa pravakṣye ||

Meaning

That which knowers of the Veda call the Imperishable, which ascetics free from passion enter, and for which people live a life of self-discipline — that goal I will explain to you briefly.
