Bhagavad-gītā 2.18

देहिनोऽस्मिन्यथा देहे कौमारं यौवनं जरा । तथा देहान्तरप्राप्तिर्धीरस्तत्र न मुह्यति ॥

dehino ‘smin yathā dehe

kaumāraṁ yauvanaṁ jarā

tathā dehāntaraprāptir

dhīras tatra na muhyati

“As the embodied soul continuously passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change.”
