BṚHADĀRAṆYAKA UPANISHAD · 4.5.11

स यथार्द्रैधाग्नेर् अभ्याहितस्य पृथग् धूमा विनिश्चरन्त्य् एवं वा अरे ऽस्य महतो भूतस्य निःश्वसितम् एतद् यद् ऋग्वेदो यजुर्वेदः सामवेदो ऽथर्वाङ्गिरस इतिहासः पुराणं विद्या उपनिषदः श्लोकाः सूत्राण्य् अनुव्याख्यानानि व्याख्याननीष्टं हुतम् आशितं पायितम् अयं च लोकः परश् च लोकः सर्वाणि च भूतानि ।
अस्यैवैतानि सर्वाणि निश्वसितानि ॥

sa yathārdraidhāgner abhyāhitasya pṛthag dhūmā viniścaranty evaṃ vā are ’sya mahato bhūtasya niḥśvasitam etad yad ṛgvedo yajurvedaḥ sāmavedo ’tharvāṅgirasa itihāsaḥ purāṇaṃ vidyā upaniṣadaḥ ślokāḥ sūtrāṇy anuvyākhyānāni vyākhyānanīṣṭaṃ hutam āśitaṃ pāyitam ayaṃ ca lokaḥ paraś ca lokaḥ sarvāṇi ca bhūtāni ।

'As clouds of smoke proceed by themselves out of lighted fire kindled with damp fuel, thus verily, O Maitreyî, has been breathed forth from this great Being what we have as Rig-veda, Yagur-veda, Sâma-veda, Atharvâṅgirasas, Itihâsa, Purâna, Vidyâ, the Upanishads, Slokas, Sûtras, Anuvyâkhyânas, Vyâkhyânas, what is sacrificed, what is poured out, food, drink, this world and the other world, and all creatures. From him alone all these were breathed forth.
