He is their father and no less their son, at once the eldest brother and the youngest. The One God penetrates within the mind, the Firstborn–yet even now within the womb.
Atharva Veda X, 8, 28
From fullness he pours forth the full; the full spreads, merging with the full. We eagerly would know from whence he thus replenishes himself?
Atharva Veda X, 8, 29
She is of ancient days, born in long ages past; she the primeval has traversed creation. The great Goddess Dawn, the shining One, looks out from each being that blinks the eye.
Atharva Veda X, 8, 30
That infinite, indeed, is below. It is above. It is behind. It is before. It is to the south. It is to the north. The Infinite, indeed, is all this. Next follows the instruction about the Infinite with reference to ’I’: I, indeed, am below. I am above. I am behind. I am before. I am to the south. I am to the north. I am, indeed, all this.
Sama Veda, Chandogya Upanishad VII, XXV – Instruction about the Infinite, 1
For him who sees this, reflects on this and understands this, the prana springs from the Self, hope springs from the Self, memory springs from the Self, the akasa springs from the Self, fire springs from the Self; water springs from the Self; appearance and disappearance spring from the Self, food springs from the Self, strength springs from the Self; understanding springs from the Self, meditation springs from the Self, consideration springs from the Self, will springs from the Self; mind springs from the Self; speech springs from the Self, the name springs from the Self, the sacred hymns spring from the Self the sacrifices spring from the Self-ay, all this springs from the Self.
Sama Veda, Chandogya Upanishad VII, XXVI – Self-knowledge, 1
