The thirteen / Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upanishad / Adhyāya 3 · Brāhmaṇa 2

BṚHADĀRAṆYAKA UPANISHAD · 3.2.9

त्वग् वै ग्रहः ।
स स्पर्शेनातिग्रहेण गृहीतः ।
त्वचा हि स्पर्शान् वेदयत ।
इत्य् अष्टौ ग्रहा अष्टाव् अतिग्रहाः ॥

tvag vai grahaḥ ।
sa sparśenātigraheṇa gṛhītaḥ ।
tvacā hi sparśān vedayata ।
ity aṣṭau grahā aṣṭāv atigrahāḥ ॥

'The skin is one Graha, and that is seized by touch as the Atigrâha, for with the skin one perceives touch. These are the eight Grahas and the eight Atigrahas.'

F. Max Müller · The Upanishads, Sacred Books of the East 15 (1884)
