Loftier even than the lofty Gayatri, strode he forth toward the Immortal. Where, I ask, is the Unborn visible? The knowers of song after song alone know it.
Atharva Veda X, 8, 41
He who sends creatures to their rest, who amasses great wealth, whose laws are as true as the God Savitri–that One stands firm, as firm as Indra, in the struggle for riches.
Atharva Veda X, 8, 42
Behold now the lotus with nine gates, encircled by the three strands; within is a great marvel consisting in the Self. This it is of which the knowers of Brahman have knowledge.
Atharva Veda X, 8, 43
Who knows the Self, wise, youthful, never aging, will have no fear of death, being free from desire– immortal, wise, in his own Self resourceful full of fresh sap, in nothing falling short.
Atharva Veda X, 8, 44
On distant pathways is the birthplace of the Lord, remote from Heaven, remote from Earth. To the two abodes that are dear to his heart he comes, then departs, knowing each path.
Atharva Veda VII, 9, 1
