Chāndogya 4.14.1
ते होचुरुपकोसलैषा सोम्य तेऽस्मद्विद्यात्मविद्या चाचार्यस्तु ते गतिं वक्तेत्याजगाम हास्याचार्यस्तमाचार्योऽभ्युवादोपकोसल३ इति ॥ ४.१४.१ ॥
They said: 'Dear Upakosala, this knowledge of the self has been given to you by us; but your teacher will tell you the way.' Then his teacher came, and the teacher addressed him: 'Upakosala!'
Chāndogya 4.14.2
भगव इति ह प्रतिशुश्राव ब्रह्मविद इव सोम्य ते मुखं भाति को नु त्वानुशशासेति को नु मानुशिष्याद्भो इतीहापेव निह्नुत इमे नूनमीदृशा अन्यादृशा इतीहाग्नीनभ्यूदे किं नु सोम्य किल तेऽवोचन्निति ॥ ४.१४.२ ॥
Upakosala replied: 'Venerable sir!' Dear one, your face shines like that of one who knows brahman. 'Who has instructed you?' 'Who would instruct me, sir?' he said, as if concealing it; 'surely these are of such a kind, of another kind,' and he gazed at the sacred fires. 'Dear one, what did they say to you?'
Chāndogya 4.14.3
इदमिति ह प्रतिजज्ञे लोकान्वाव किल सोम्य तेऽवोचन्नहं तु ते तद्वक्ष्यामि यथा पुष्करपलाश आपो न श्लिष्यन्त एवमेवंविदि पापं कर्म न श्लिष्यत इति ब्रवीतु मे भगवानिति तस्मै होवाच ॥ ४.१४.३ ॥
'This,' he thus acknowledged regarding the worlds. Surely, dear one, they said this to you; I will tell you that. Just as water does not cling to a lotus leaf, so evil action does not cling to one who knows thus. 'Let the venerable one tell me,' he said; and he said to him.
