अधीहि भगव इति होपससाद सनत्कुमारं नारदस्तँ होवाच यद्वेत्थ तेन मोपसीद ततस्त ऊर्ध्वं वक्ष्यामीति स होवाच ॥ ७.१.१ ॥
Saying 'Teach me, venerable sir,' Nārada approached Sanatkumāra. He said to him, 'Come to me with what you already know; after that I will tell you further.' Then he spoke.

ऋग्वेदं भगवोऽध्येमि यजुर्वेदँ सामवेदमाथर्वणं चतुर्थमितिहासपुराणं पञ्चमं वेदानां वेदं पित्र्यँ राशिं दैवं निधिं वाकोवाक्यमेकायनं देवविद्यां ब्रह्मविद्यां भूतविद्यां क्षत्रविद्यां नक्षत्रविद्याँ सर्पदेवजनविद्यामेतद्भगवोऽध्येमि ॥ ७.१.२ ॥
Venerable one, I have studied the Ṛg Veda, the Yajur Veda, the Sāma Veda, the fourth, the Atharva Veda, and the fifth, the epics and Purāṇas — the Veda of the Vedas; the science of ancestors, the science of gods, the treasure, debate, the one path, the science of the gods, the science of brahman, the science of beings, the science of warriors, the science of stars, the science of serpents, gods and humans — venerable one, all this I have studied.
Chāndogya 7.1.3
सोऽहं भगवो मन्त्रविदेवास्मि नात्मविच्छ्रुतँ ह्येव मे भगवद्दृशेभ्यस्तरति शोकमात्मविदिति सोऽहं भगवः शोचामि तं मा भगवाञ्छोकस्य पारं तारयत्विति तँ होवाच यद्वै किञ्चैतदध्यगीष्ठा नामैवैतत् ॥ ७.१.३ ॥
Nārada said: Revered one, I know only the mantras, not the self. I have heard from seers like you that one who knows the self crosses over sorrow. I am sorrowful; revered one, carry me across to the far shore of sorrow. He said to him: Whatever you have studied is only a name.
Chāndogya 7.1.4
नाम वा ऋग्वेदो यजुर्वेदः सामवेद आथर्वणश्चतुर्थ इतिहासपुराणः पञ्चमो वेदानां वेदः पित्र्यो राशिर्दैवो निधिर्वाकोवाक्यमेकायनं देवविद्या ब्रह्मविद्या भूतविद्या क्षत्रविद्या नक्षत्रविद्या सर्पदेवजनविद्या नामैवैतन्नामोपास्स्वेति ॥ ७.१.४ ॥
Sanatkumāra said: Name indeed is the Ṛg Veda, the Yajur Veda, the Sāma Veda, the Atharva Veda as the fourth, the epics and Purāṇas as the fifth, the Veda of the Vedas, the science of ancestors, the science of numbers, the treasure of the gods, debate, the one way, the science of the gods, the science of brahman, the science of beings, the science of warriors, the science of stars, the science of serpents, gods and humans; all of this is only name. Meditate upon name.
Chāndogya 7.1.5
स यो नाम ब्रह्मेत्युपास्ते यावन्नाम्नो गतं तत्रास्य यथाकामचारो भवति यो नाम ब्रह्मेत्युपास्तेऽस्ति भगवो नाम्नो भूय इति नाम्नो वाव भूयोऽस्तीति तन्मे भगवान्ब्रवीत्विति ॥ ७.१.५ ॥
Sanatkumāra said: One who meditates upon the name as brahman moves at will as far as the name reaches. Nārada said: Revered one, is there anything greater than the name? He said: There is something greater than the name; may the revered one tell me that.
