3.15.1

antarikṣodaraḥ kośo bhūmibudhno na jīryati \
diśo hy asya sraktayo dyaur asyottaraṃ bilam \
sa eṣa kośo vasudhānas tasmin viśvam idaṃ śritam \\315.1\

The chest (i.e. the universe), having the sky as its hollow and the earth for its (curved) bottom, does not decay. The quarters are indeed its corners and heaven its upper lid. This well-known chest is the container of wealth. All things rest in it.

Swami Swahananda 1956, The Chāndogya Upaniṣad
