Chāndogya 3.12.1
गायत्री वा ईदꣳ सर्वं भूतं यदिदं किं च वाग्वै गायत्री वाग्वा इदꣳ सर्वं भूतं गायति च त्रायते च ॥ ३.१२.१ ॥
Whatever all this is here—all beings, indeed—is Gāyatrī. Speech is Gāyatrī, for all this, all beings, is indeed speech; it sings and it protects.
Chāndogya 3.12.2
या वै सा गायत्रीयं वाव सा येयं पृथिव्यस्याꣳहीदꣳसर्वं भूतं प्रतिष्ठितमेतामेव नातिशीयते ॥ ३.१२.२ ॥
That Gāyatrī is indeed this earth, and upon this earth all this, all beings, is established. None surpasses this one.
Chāndogya 3.12.3
या वै सा पृथिवीयं वाव सा यदिदमस्मिन्पुरुषे शरीरमस्मिन्हीमे प्राणाः प्रतिष्ठिता एतदेव नातिशीयन्ते ॥ ३.१२.३ ॥
That earth is indeed this body in this person, for in it these life-breaths are established. None surpasses these.
Chāndogya 3.12.4
यद्वै तत्पुरुषे शरीरमिदं वाव तद्यदिदमस्मिन्नन्तः पुरुषे हृदयमस्मिन्हीमे प्राणाः प्रतिष्ठिता एतदेव नातिशीयन्ते ॥ ३.१२.४ ॥
The body that is in the person is indeed that; and this heart within the person is that too, for in it these prāṇas (life-breaths) are established. This is that which they do not surpass.
Chāndogya 3.12.5
सैषा चतुष्पदा षड्विधा गायत्री तदेतदृचाभ्यनूक्तम् ॥ ३.१२.५ ॥
This Gāyatrī has four feet and is of six kinds; and this has been recited in a verse (ṛc).
Chāndogya 3.12.6
तावानस्य महिमा ततो ज्यायाꣳश्च पूरुषः । पादोऽस्य सर्वा भूतानि त्रिपादस्यामृतं दिवीति ॥ ३.१२.६ ॥
Such is his greatness; and the person is greater still. All beings are one quarter of him; three quarters of him are the immortal in heaven.
Chāndogya 3.12.7
यद्वै तद्ब्रह्मेतीदं वाव तद्योयं बहिर्धा पुरुषादाकाशो यो वै स बहिर्धा पुरुषादाकाशः ॥ ३.१२.७ ॥
That which is brahman — this is indeed that. This space outside the person is that space which is outside the person.
Chāndogya 3.12.8
अयं वाव स योऽयमन्तः पुरुष अकाशो यो वै सोऽन्तः पुरुष आकाशः ॥ ३.१२.८ ॥
Indeed, this inner person which is here is that space; and the inner person which is space, that is it.
Chāndogya 3.12.9
अयं वाव स योऽयमन्तर्हृदय आकाशस्तदेतत्पूर्णमप्रवर्ति पूर्णमप्रवर्तिनीꣳश्रियं लभते य एवं वेद ॥ ३.१२.९ ॥
Indeed, this is the space within the heart; this is the full, the unfailing; one who knows thus obtains full, unfailing prosperity.
