8.14.1
ākāśo vai nāma nāmarūpayor nirvahitā \
te yadantarā tad brahma tad amṛtaṃ sa ātmā \
prajāpateḥ sabhāṃ veśma prapadye yaśo 'haṃ bhavāmi brāhmaṇānāṃ yaśo rājñām yaśo viśām \
yaśo 'ham anuprāpatsi \
sa hāhaṃ yaśasāṃ yaśaḥ \
śyetam adatkam adatkaṃ śyetaṃ lindu mābhigāṃ lindu mā abhigām \\814.1\
Verily, what is called Ākāśa is the revealer of name and form. That within which they are, is Brahman, that is the immortal, that is the Ātman. ‘I attain to the assembly-hall and abode of Prajāpati. I am the glory of the Brāhmaṇas, the glory of the Kṣatriyas, the glory of the Vaiśyas. I wish to attain that glory. I am the glory of the glories. May I never go to that which is reddish-white and toothless yet devouring and slippery—yea, may I never go to it.
