According to Chapter 37, death is simply the state when something that came from the unmanifest into a manifest form returns to the unmanifest. The true 'nooses of death' are identified as unrighteousness (adharma), ignorance, anger, and hatred. The chapter redefines heaven not as a physical place but as the Vairaj (the Cosmic Being) itself. This divine heavenly state, the Virat Self-form, is described as a state free from mental grief, disease, sorrow, hunger, thirst, and the fear of death, where the soul can move about without fear.
