The thirteen / Chāndogya Upanishad / Adhyāya 2 · Khaṇḍa 20

CHĀNDOGYA UPANISHAD · 2.20.1

अग्निर् हिङ्कारः ।
वायुः प्रस्तावः ।
आदित्य उद्गीथः ।
नक्षत्राणि प्रतिहारः ।
चन्द्रमा निधनम् ।
एतद् राजनं देवतासु प्रोतम् ॥

agnir hiṅkāraḥ ।
vāyuḥ prastāvaḥ ।
āditya udgīthaḥ ।
nakṣatrāṇi pratihāraḥ ।
candramā nidhanam ।
etad rājanaṃ devatāsu protam ॥

The hiṅkâra is fire, the prastâva air, the udgîtha the sun, the pratihâra the stars, the nidhana the moon. That is the Râgana Sâman, as interwoven in the deities.

F. Max Müller · The Upanishads, Sacred Books of the East 1 (1879)
