Chāndogya 6.2.1
सदेव सोम्येदमग्र आसीदेकमेवाद्वितीयम् । तद्धैक आहुरसदेवेदमग्र आसीदेकमेवाद्वितीयं तस्मादसतः सज्जायत ॥ ६.२.१ ॥
Dear one, in the beginning this world was only Being (sat), one only, without a second. Some say that in the beginning this world was only non-being (asat), one only, without a second; and from that non-being, Being was born.
Chāndogya 6.2.2
कुतस्तु खलु सोम्यैवँस्यादिति होवाच कथमसतः सज्जायेतेति। सत्त्वेव सोम्येदमग्र आसीदेकमेवाद्वितीयम् ॥ ६.२.२ ॥
Dear one, how could that be? he said. How could Being arise from non-being? Dear one, in the beginning this world was only Being (sat), one only, without a second.
Chāndogya 6.2.3
तदैक्षत बहु स्यां प्रजायेयेति तत्तेजोऽसृजत । तत्तेज ऐक्षत बहु स्यां प्रजायेयेति तदपोऽसृजत । तस्माद्यत्र क्वच शोचति स्वेदते वा पुरुषस्तेजस एव तदध्यापो जायन्ते ॥ ६.२.३ ॥
He resolved: may I become many, may I be born. Then he sent forth fire (tejas). That fire resolved: may I become many, may I be born. Then it sent forth water. Therefore wherever a person grieves or sweats, it is from fire alone that water is born.
Chāndogya 6.2.4
ता आप ऐक्षन्त बह्व्यः स्याम प्रजायेमहीति ता अन्नमसृजन्त । तस्माद्यत्र क्व च वर्षति तदेव भूयिष्ठमन्नं भवत्यद्भ्य एव तदध्यन्नाद्यं जायते ॥ ६.२.४ ॥
Those waters resolved: may we become many, may we be born. Then they sent forth food. Therefore wherever it rains, there is the most abundant food; from water alone is edible food born.
