Self as Truth; it is the Self of all and is Brahman. He should say, 'The Real'. 'What is that, viz., the Real?' What is other than the gods (sense-organs) and the vital breaths, that is the sat (what is) As for the gods and the vital breaths, they are the tvam (the you). This is expressed by the word satyam. It is as extensive as all this. You are this world-all. Thus, then he speaks to him. This very thing has been expressed by a Rig verse: Having Yajus as her belly, having the Saman as his head Having the Rik as his form imperishable. Is Brahman - thus is he to be known. The great seen consists on the Vedas. He says to him; 'Wherewith does one acquire many masculine names?' He should answer: 'With the vital breath'. 'Wherewith does one acquire the feminine names?' 'With speech'. 'Wherewith the neater ones?' With the mind'. 'Wherewith the odours?' 'With the smell'. 'Wherewith the forms?' 'With the eye'. 'Wherewith the sounds?' 'With the ears'. 'Wherewith the taste of food?' 'With the tongue'. 'Wherewith actions?' 'With two hands'. 'Wherewith pleasure and pain?' 'With the body'. 'Wherewith bliss, delight and procreation?' 'With the generative organ'. 'Wherewith the going?' 'With the two feet'. 'Wherewith thoughts, what is to be understood and desires?' 'With intelligence', he should say. To him he says, 'The waters, verily, indeed are my world. That is yours? Whatever victory is Brahma's, whatever attainment, that victory he wins, that attainment he attains, who knows this, who knows thus.
