उभे सत्ये क्षत्रियाद्यप्रवृत्ते मोहो मृत्युः संमतो यः कवीनाम् । प्रमादं वै मृत्युमहं ब्रवीमि सदाप्रमादममृतत्वं ब्रवीमि॥५-४२-४॥

Both statements can be upheld in their respective domains of practice beginning with the kṣatriya way of life: the sages regard delusion as ‘death’. I declare heedlessness (pramāda) to be death, and constant non-heedlessness to be deathlessness.
