स आगच्छतील्यं वृक्षं तं ब्रह्मगन्धः प्रविशति, स आगच्छति सालज्यं संस्थानं तं ब्रह्मरसः प्रविशति, स आगच्छत्यपराजितमायतनं तं ब्रह्मतेजः प्रविशति स आगच्छति । इन्द्रप्रजापती द्वारगोपौ तावस्मादपद्रवतः स आगच्छति विभुप्रमितं तं ब्रह्मतेजः प्रविशति स आगच्छति विचक्षणामासन्दीं बृहद्रथन्तरे सामनी पूर्वी पादौ श्यैतनौधसे चापरौ वैरूपवैराजे अनूच्येते शाक्कररैवते तिरश्ची सा प्रज्ञा प्रज्ञया हि विपश्यति स आगच्छत्यमितौजसं पर्यङ्कं स प्राणस्तस्य भूतं च भविष्यच्च पूर्वी पादौ श्रीश्चेरा चापरौ बृहद्रथंतरे अनूच्ये भद्रयज्ञायज्ञीये शीर्षण्ये ऋचश्च सामानि च प्राचीनातानानि यजूंषि तिरश्चीनानि सोमांशव उपस्तरणमुद्गीथ उपश्रीः श्रीरुपबर्हणं तस्मिन्ब्रह्मास्ते तमित्थंवित्पादेनैवाग्र आरोहति । तं ब्रह्मा पृच्छति कोऽसीति तं प्रतिब्रूयात् ॥
He comes to the tree Ilya and the fragrance of Brahma enters into him. He comes to the city Salajja; the flavour of Brahma enters into him. He comes to the abode Aparajita; the might of Brahma enters him. He comes to the door-keepers Indra and Prajapati; they run away from him. He comes to the hall Vibhu; the glory of Brahma enters into him. He comes to the throne Vichaksana; the Brihad and the Rathantara samans are its two forefeet; the 'Syaita and Naudhasa', the two hind-feet; the Vairupa and the Vaichaja the two lengthwise pieces; the Sakvara and Raivata the two cross ones. It is Intelligence; for by intelligence, one discerns. He comes to the couch Amitaujas (of unmeasured splendour); this is the vital breath. The past and the future are its two fore feet; prosperity and earth are the two hind-feet; the Bhadra and the Yajnayajniya (Samans) the two head-pieces. The Brihad and the Rathantara are the two lengthwise pieces. The verses and the chants and the cords are stretched lengthwise. The sacrificial formulas are the cross ones. Some stems are the spread; the Udgithathe bolster; prosperity the pillow. On it, Brahma sits. He who knows thus ascends it with one foot only at first. Brahma asks him: Who are you? To him he should answer: I am a season, of the seasons. From space as a womb, I am produced as the semen for a wife, as the brilliance of the year, as the self of every single being. What you are that am I'. To him he says, 'Who am I'.
