Guṇa-Traya-Vibhāga Yoga · Verse 2

इदं ज्ञानमुपाश्रित्य मम साधर्म्यमागताः | सर्गेऽपि नोपजायन्ते प्रलये न व्यथन्ति च

idaṃ jñānam upāśritya mama sādharmyam āgatāḥ | sarge 'pi nopajāyante pralaye na vyathanti ca

Taking refuge in this knowledge, they have attained My own nature; they are not born at creation nor do they tremble at dissolution.

Sādharmyam — My own nature — is not annihilation in the Absolute but participation in the divine nature. The liberated being becomes brahma-bhūta — Brahman-natured.

Not born at sarga (cosmic creation) nor agitated at pralaya (cosmic dissolution): the realized soul transcends even cosmic cycles. Individual birth and death are overcome.

This is the state of jīvan-mukti — liberation while living — and of videha-mukti — liberation after bodily death.
