Death: "O Naciketā, you, such as you are, have discarded, after consideration, all the desirable things that are themselves delightful or are the producers of delight. You have not accepted this path of wealth in which many a man comes to grief. That known as knowledge and that known as ignorance are widely contradictory, and they follow divergent courses. I consider Naciketā to be an aspirant for knowledge, because the enjoyable things, multifarious though they be, did not tempt you."
