(20) Now Nachiketa asks for the third boon : "Some peo-
ple think that there is a soul which never dies even after the
body prishes, while some others think that this is not so, i.e.,
there is no soul separate from the body. This is the doubt
which I desire to be removed and, being taught by you, I may
know the reality, i.e., attain right spritual knowledge ; this is
my third boon of the boons of my choosing."

(21) Yama replies. "0 Nachiketa ! The learned also pre-
viously entertained doubt as to this, i.e., as to the immortality
of the soul. This spritual science is not easy to understand,
being very subtle. You may, therefore, ask for some other
boon; abandon the same."
