sa hovāca bālākiḥ - ya evaiṣo 'psu puruṣas tam evāham upāsa iti | taṃ hovācājātaśatruḥ - mā maitasmin saṃvādayiṣṭhāḥ | tejasa ātmeti vā aham etam upāsa iti | sa yo haitam evam upāste tejasa ātmā bhavati | ityadhidaivatam | athādhyātmam ||

ŚĀ 6.10 = KU 4.10
Bālāki said: 'The person who is here in the waters—him indeed I venerate.' Ajātaśatru said to him: 'Do not challenge me on this! "The self of radiance"—thus indeed do I venerate him.' Whoever venerates him thus becomes the self of radiance. Thus with respect to the deities. Now with respect to the self.
