Chāndogya 2.12.1
अभिमन्थति स हिङ्कारो धूमो जायते स प्रस्तावो ज्वलति स उद्गीथोऽङ्गारा भवन्ति स प्रतिहार उपशाम्यति तन्निधनꣳसꣳशाम्यति तन्निधनमेतमग्नौ प्रोतम् ॥ २.१२.१ ॥
He is the hiṅkāra; from him smoke arises. He is the prastāva; he blazes. He is the udgītha; the embers come to be. He is the pratihāra; he subsides. He is the nidhana; it fully subsides. This nidhana is strung in the fire.
Chāndogya 2.12.2
()
स य एवमेतद्रथन्तरमग्नौ प्रोतं वेद ब्रह्मवर्चस्यन्नादो भवति सर्वमायुरेति ज्योग्जीवति महान्प्रजया पशुभिर्भवति महान्कीर्त्या न प्रत्यङ्ङग्निमाचामेन्न निष्ठीवेत्तद्व्रतम् ॥ २.१२.२ ॥
He who knows this Rathantara, thus strung in the fire, becomes one possessing the splendour of Brahman, an eater of food. He attains the full span of life, lives long, becomes great through offspring and cattle, and great in fame. Facing the fire, he should not sip water nor spit; this is the vow.
