Chāndogya 6.13.1
लवणमेतदुदकेऽवधायाथ मा प्रातरुपसीदथा इति स ह तथा चकार तँ होवाच यद्दोषा लवणमुदकेऽवाधा अङ्ग तदाहरेति तद्धावमृश्य न विवेद ॥ ६.१३.१ ॥
'Put this salt in water and come to me in the morning.' He did so. Then he said: 'Dear one, bring me the salt you put in the water last night.' He groped for it but could not find it.
Chāndogya 6.13.2
यथा विलीनमेवाङ्गास्यान्तादाचामेति कथमिति लवणमिति मध्यादाचामेति कथमिति लवणमित्यन्तादाचामेति कथमिति लवणमित्यभिप्रास्यैतदथ मोपसीदथा इति तद्ध तथा चकार तच्छश्वत्संवर्तते तँ होवाचात्र वाव किल तत्सोम्य न निभालयसेऽत्रैव किलेति ॥ ६.१३.२ ॥
'As this salt has dissolved, taste it from the top, dear one—how is it?' 'Salty.' 'Taste from the middle—how?' 'Salty.' 'Taste from the bottom—how?' 'Salty.' 'Spit it out, then come to me.' He did so, and it remained ever the same. Then he said: 'Dear one, the salt is indeed here, yet you do not see it; it is here.'
Chāndogya 6.13.3
स य एषोऽणिमैतदात्म्यमिदँ सर्वं तत्सत्यँ स आत्मा तत्त्वमसि श्वेतकेतो इति भूय एव मा भगवान्विज्ञापयत्विति तथा सोम्येति होवाच ॥ ६.१३.३ ॥
That which is this subtle essence — the whole of this has that as its self. It is the real; it is the self; you are that, Śvetaketu. When he said, "Let the venerable one instruct me again," he replied, "So be it, gentle one."
