Chāndogya 6.14.1
यथा सोम्य पुरुषं गन्धारेभ्योऽभिनद्धाक्षमानीय तं ततोऽतिजने विसृजेत्स यथा तत्र प्राङ्वोदङ्वाधराङ्वा प्रत्यङ्वा प्रध्मायीताभिनद्धाक्ष आनीतोऽभिनद्धाक्षो विसृष्टः ॥ ६.१४.१ ॥
Gentle one, as a man brought from the land of the Gandhāras with his eyes bound, and released in some distant place, would wander eastward, northward, southward or westward, his eyes still bound, having been brought blindfolded and released blindfolded —
Chāndogya 6.14.2
तस्य यथाभिनहनं प्रमुच्य प्रब्रूयादेतां दिशं गन्धारा एतां दिशं व्रजेति स ग्रामाद्ग्रामं पृच्छन्पण्डितो मेधावी गन्धारानेवोपसम्पद्येतैवमेवेहाचार्यवान्पुरुषो वेद तस्य तावदेव चिरं यावन्न विमोक्ष्येऽथ सम्पत्स्य इति ॥ ६.१४.२ ॥
When someone loosens his blindfold and says, "Go in this direction to the Gandhāras," the wise and learned man, asking from village to village, finally reaches the Gandhāras. So too, here, the person who has a teacher knows; it takes him only as long as he is not released; then he attains.
Chāndogya 6.14.3
स य एषोऽणिमैतदात्म्यमिदँ सर्वं तत्सत्यँ स आत्मा तत्त्वमसि श्वेतकेतो इति भूय एव मा भगवान्विज्ञापयत्विति तथा सोम्येति होवाच ॥ ६.१४.३ ॥
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."
