महाभारतः       mahābhārataḥ - book-12, chapter-19, verse-15

अनिर्देश्या गतिः सा तु यां प्रपश्यन्ति मोक्षिणः ।
तस्मात्त्यागः प्रधानेष्टः स तु दुःखः प्रवेदितुम् ॥१५॥
15. anirdeśyā gatiḥ sā tu yāṁ prapaśyanti mokṣiṇaḥ ,
tasmāttyāgaḥ pradhāneṣṭaḥ sa tu duḥkhaḥ praveditum.
15. anirdeśyā gatiḥ sā tu yām prapaśyanti mokṣiṇaḥ
tasmāt tyāgaḥ pradhāneṣṭaḥ saḥ tu duḥkhaḥ praveditum
15. sā gatiḥ tu yām mokṣiṇaḥ prapaśyanti anirdeśyā
tasmāt tyāgaḥ pradhāneṣṭaḥ saḥ tu praveditum duḥkhaḥ
15. But that state (gati) which those seeking liberation (mokṣa) perceive is indescribable. Therefore, renunciation (tyāga) is considered most excellent, yet it is difficult to describe or make known.
