Chāndogya 4.6.1
अग्निष्टे पादं वक्तेति स ह श्वोभूते गा आभिप्रस्थापयाञ्चकार ता यत्राभिसायं बभूवुस्तत्राग्निमुपसमाधाय गा उपरुध्य समिधमाधाय पश्चादग्नेः प्राङुपोपविवेश ॥ ४.६.१ ॥
Thinking 'Agni will tell you the quarter,' he drove the cows out the next morning. Where they had gathered by evening, he kindled a fire, penned the cows, placed the kindling-wood, and sat down facing east, behind the fire.
Chāndogya 4.6.2
तमग्निरभ्युवाद सत्यकाम३ इति भगव इति ह प्रतिशुश्राव ॥ ४.६.२ ॥
Agni addressed him: 'Satyakāma!' He answered: 'Venerable one!'
Chāndogya 4.6.3
ब्रह्मणः सोम्य ते पादं ब्रवाणीति ब्रवीतु मे भगवानिति तस्मै होवाच पृथिवी कलान्तरिक्षं कला द्यौः कला समुद्रः कलैष वै सोम्य चतुष्कलः पादो ब्रह्मणोऽनन्तवान्नाम ॥ ४.६.३ ॥
Dear one, I will tell you one quarter of brahman. Venerable one, tell me, he said. Then the earth told him: the earth is one part, the atmosphere is one part, the sky is one part, the ocean is one part. Dear one, this is the four-part quarter of brahman, called 'the endless-possessing' (ananta-vān).
Chāndogya 4.6.4
स य एतमेवं विद्वाꣳश्चतुष्कलं पादं ब्रह्मणोऽनन्तवानित्युपास्तेऽनन्तवानस्मिꣳल्लोके भवत्यनन्तवतो ह लोकाञ्जयति य एतमेवं विद्वाꣳश्चतुष्कलं पादं ब्रह्मणोऽनन्तवानित्युपास्ते ॥ ४.६.४ ॥
One who knows this in this way and meditates on the four-part quarter of brahman as 'the endless-possessing' becomes endless-possessing in this world. One who knows this in this way and meditates on the four-part quarter of brahman as 'the endless-possessing' indeed wins endless worlds.
