Chāndogya 2.13.1
उपमन्त्रयते स हिङ्कारो ज्ञपयते स प्रस्तावः स्त्रिया सह शेते स उद्गीथः प्रति स्त्रीं सह शेते स प्रतिहारः कालं गच्छति तन्निधनं पारं गच्छति तन्निधनमेतयं मिथुने प्रोतम् ॥ २.१३.१ ॥
He is the hiṅkāra: he softly invites. He is the prastāva: he gives assent. He is the udgītha: he lies with a woman. He is the pratihāra: he lies with the woman. The nidhana reaches the time; the nidhana reaches the far shore. This nidhana is strung in the pair (mithuna).
Chāndogya 2.13.2
स य एवमेतद्वामदेव्यं मिथुने प्रोतं वेद मिथुनीभवति मिथुनान्मिथुनात्प्रजायते सर्वमायुरेति ज्योग्जीवति महान्प्रजया पशुभिर्भवति महान्कीर्त्या न काञ्चन परिहरेत्तद्व्रतम् ॥ २.१३.२ ॥
He who knows this Vāmadevya, thus strung in the pair (mithuna), becomes one who has a partner; offspring are born from union. He attains the full span of life, lives long, becomes great through offspring and cattle, and great in fame. He should not reject anyone; this is the vow.
