The thirteen / Chāndogya Upanishad / Adhyāya 3 · Khaṇḍa 13

CHĀNDOGYA UPANISHAD · 3.13.5

अथ यो ऽस्योर्ध्वः सुषिः स उदानः ।
स वायुः ।
स आकाशः ।
तद् एतद् ओजश् च महश् चेत्य् उपासीत ।
ओजस्वी महस्वान् भवति य एवं वेद ॥

atha yo ’syordhvaḥ suṣiḥ sa udānaḥ ।
sa vāyuḥ ।
sa ākāśaḥ ।
tad etad ojaś ca mahaś cety upāsīta ।
ojasvī mahasvān bhavati ya evaṃ veda ॥

The upper gate is the Udâna (out-breathing), that is air, that is ether. Let a man meditate on that as strength and greatness. He who knows this, becomes strong and great.

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