BṚHADĀRAṆYAKA UPANISHAD · 6.3.9
एतम् उ हैव मधुकः पैङ्ग्यश् चूलाय भागवित्तये ऽन्तेवासिन उक्त्वोवाच -- अपि य एनं शुष्के स्थाणौ निषिञ्चेज् जायेरञ् छाखाः प्ररोहेयुः पलाशानीति ॥
etam u haiva madhukaḥ paiṅgyaś cūlāya bhāgavittaye ’ntevāsina uktvovāca -- api ya enaṃ śuṣke sthāṇau niṣiñcej jāyerañ chākhāḥ praroheyuḥ palāśānīti ॥
Madhuka Paiṅgya told the same to his pupil Kûla Bhâgavitti, and said: 'If a man were to pour it on a dry stick, branches would grow, and leaves spring forth.'
