c5.s4.2.4
how the conceptions of Not-Being and Being in the Taittirīya and the Chhāndogya Upanishads have their parallels in the theories of Gorgias and Parmenides; how the Way Up and the Way Down in Taittirīyopanishad are repeated in the theory of Heracleitus; how, finally, the conception of Trivṛitkaraṇa in the Chhāndogya Upanishad has its analogue in the Anaxagorian doctrine of there being a portion of everything in everything. So far about the cosmological resemblances proper. Nor are the extra-cosmological resemblances of the two philosophies less interesting.
