DEATH IS A TOPIC THAT HAS BEEN HEAVILY MISUED AND ABUSED BY VARIOUS RELIGIONS

तथा देहान्तरप्राप्तिर्धीरस्तत्र न मुह्यति || २ १३ ||

tathaa dehantara-praaptir-
dhiiras-tatra na muhyati (SBG 2:13)
Just as the Atman or soul, which is in the body, passes childhood, youth and old age, it acquires another body after that body dies. Wise people are not baffled by this fact. (SBG 2:13)
