Chāndogya Upaniṣad 3.17.5

ChU 3.17.5

तस्माद् आहुः सोष्यत्य् असोष्टेति । पुनर् उत्पादनम् एवास्य तत् । मरणम् एवावभृथः

tasmād āhuḥ soṣyaty asoṣṭeti | punar utpādanam evāsya tat | maraṇam evāvabhṛthaḥ

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Therefore when they say, 'There will be a birth,' and 'there has been a birth' (words used at the Soma-sacrifice, and really meaning, 'He will pour out the Soma-juice,' and 'he has poured out the Soma-juice'), that is his new birth. His death is the Avabhritha ceremony (when the sacrificial vessels are carried away to be cleansed).
