When the self remains in the dream state, these are its achievements (results of past action): It then becomes a great king, as it were; or a noble brahmin, as it were; or attains, as it were, high or low states. Even as a great king, taking with him his retinue of citizens, moves about, according to his pleasure, within his own domain, so does the self, taking with it the organs, move about according to its pleasure, in the body.<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad II, I-Relative Aspects of Brahman, 18<\/p>\n
Next, when the self goes into deep sleep-when it does not know anything-it returns along the seventy-two thousand nerves called hita, which extend from the heart throughout the whole body and remains in the body. As a baby or an emperor or a noble brahmin lives, having reached the summit of happiness, so does the self rest.<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad II, I-Relative Aspects of Brahman, 19<\/p>\n
As the spider moves along the thread it produces, or as from a fire tiny sparks fly in all directions, even so from this Atman come forth all organs, all worlds, all gods, all beings. Its secret name (Upanishad) is the Truth of truth. The vital breaths are the truth and their truth is Atman.<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad II, I-Relative Aspects of Brahman, 20<\/p>\n
These seven gods that prevent decay worship it (the calf): through these pink lines in the eye, Rudra attends on it; through the water in the eye, Parjanya attends on it; through the pupil of the eye, the sun attends on it; through the black of the eye,fire attends on it; through the white portion, Indra; through the lower eyelid, the earth; and through the upper eyelid, heaven attends on it. He who knows this-his food does not diminish.<\/p>\n
Yajur Veda, Brihadaranyaka Upanishad II, II-Description of the Prana, 2<\/p>\n
May whatever appeasements there are in the world, known by the Seven Sages, may they all be gracious to me! May peace be with me! May fearlessness be with me<\/p>\n
