> 2. That which is flaming, which is subtler than the subtle,  
> On which the worlds are set, and their inhabitants—  
> That is the imperishable Brahma.  
> It is life (prāṇa), and It is speech and mind.  
> That is the real. It is immortal.  
> It is \[a mark\] to be penetrated. Penetrate It, my friend!  
> — Robert Ernest Hume 1921, The Thirteen Principal Upanishads
