6.1.7

te heme prāṇā aham̐śreyase vivadamānā brahma jagmu-staddhocuḥ ko no vasiṣṭha iti taddhovāca yasminva utkānta idam̐ śarīraṃ pāpīyo manyate sa vo vasiṣṭha iti

These organs, disputing over their respective greatness, went to Brahman and said to him, 'Which of us is the Vasiṣṭha?' He said, 'That one of you will be the Vasiṣṭha, who departing from among yourselves, people consider this body far more wretched.'
