5.13.4
kṣatraṃ prāṇo vai kṣatraṃ prāṇo hi vai kṣatraṃ trāyate hainaṃ prāṇaḥ kṣaṇitoḥ prakṣatramatramāpnoti kṣatrasya sāyujyam̐ salokatāṃ jayati ya evaṃ veda
Next follows the Kshatra. Verily, breath is the Kshatra, for breath is Kshatra, i.e. breath protects (trâyate) him from being hurt (kshanitoh). He who knows this, obtains Kshatra (power), which requires no protection; he obtains union and oneness with Kshatra.
