Kaṭha Upaniṣad 1.1.6

KaU 1.1.6

अनुपश्य यथा पूर्वे प्रतिपश्य तथापरे । सस्यम् इव मर्त्यः पच्यते सस्यम् इवाजायते पुनः

anupaśya yathā pūrve pratipaśya tathāpare / sasyam iva martyaḥ pacyate sasyam ivājāyate punaḥ

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

Look back to those who lived before and look to those who live now. Like grain the mortal decays and like grain again springs up (is reborn).
