7. ud is heaven; gī is atmosphere; tha is the earth. ud is the sun; gī is wind; tha is fire. ud is Sāma-Veda; gī is Yajur-Veda; tha is Rig-Veda. Speech yields milk—that is, the milk of speech itself—for him, he becomes rich in food, an eater of food, who knows and reverences these syllables of the Udgītha thus: ud, gī, tha.
