May He protect us both. May He be pleased with us both. May we work together with vigor; may our study make us illumined. May there be no dislike between us. Aum, peace, peace.
Krishna Yajur Veda, Taittiraya Upanishad 2.1. Invocation. upr, 541
Nonviolence is all the offerings. Renunciation is the priestly honorarium. The final purification is death. Thus all the Divinities are established in this body.
Krishna Yajur Veda, Pranagnihotra Upanishad 46-8. ve, 413-14
By means of the hymns one attains this world, by the sacrificial formulas the space in-between, by holy chant the world revealed by the sages. With the syllable Aum as his sole support, the wise man attains that which is peaceful, unageing, deathless, fearless-the Supreme.
Atharva Veda, Prasna Upanishad 5.7. ve, p. 775
Whatever world the man of purified mind desires, whatever desires he wishes to fulfill, all these he attains. Therefore, let whoever is desirous of prosperity worship the man of Self Realization.
Atharva Veda, Mundaka Upanishad 3.1.10, eh p. 178
In which of his limbs does Fervor dwell? In which of his limbs is Order set? In what part of him abides Constancy, Faith? In which of his limbs is Truth established?
Atharva Veda X, 7, 1
