Na Hanyate Hanyamane Sarire""""Consciousness is eternal it is not vanquished with the destruction of the temporary body

The embodied one within the body of everyone, O Bharata, is ever undestroyable. Therefore you should not grieve for any being.

Those who practice severe austerities without following the scriptures, with hypocrisy and egotism, impelled by lust, and attachment; / Senselessly torturing the elements in their body and also Me who dwell within the body; know these ignorant persons to be of demonic nature.

The body is mortal, but the person dwelling in the body is immortal and immeasurable.
