5.1.12

tvaṃ naḥ śreṣṭho 'si \
motkramīr iti \\501.12\

Then, as the Prāṇa was about to depart, it uprooted the other senses just as a horse of mettle would uproot the pegs to which it is tethered. They all then came to it and said, ‘O revered sir, be our lord, you are the best amongst us; do not depart from the body.’

Swami Swahananda 1956, The Chāndogya Upaniṣad
