अथ हैनं शैब्यः सत्यकामः पप्रच्छ। स यो ह वै तद्भगवन्मनुष्येषु प्रायणान्तमोंकारमभिध्यायीत कतमं वाव स तेन लोकं जयतीति॥

atha hainaṃ śaibyaḥ satyakāmaḥ papraccha | sa yo ha vai tadbhagavanmanuṣyeṣu prāyaṇāntamoṃkāramabhidhyāyīta katamaṃ vāva sa tena lokaṃ jayatīti ||

"Then Satyakama Shibi asked: "Lord, if someone among humans meditates on OM until death, which world does he attain by that?""

What This Means:

The fifth question concerns OM meditation: What result does continuous meditation on OM bring?

Going Deeper:

This question elevates the discussion to the practice of upasana (meditation) and its fruits in terms of attainment.

How To Apply This:

Consider: What would happen if you meditated on OM throughout your life until death?
