The thirteen / Chāndogya Upanishad / Adhyāya 3 · Khaṇḍa 3

CHĀNDOGYA UPANISHAD · 3.3.1

अथ ये ऽस्य प्रत्यञ्चो रश्मायस् ता एवास्य प्रतीच्यो मधुनाड्यः ।
सामान्य् एव मधुकृतः ।
सामवेद एव पुष्पम् ।
ता अमृता आपः ॥

atha ye ’sya pratyañco raśmāyas tā evāsya pratīcyo madhunāḍyaḥ ।
sāmāny eva madhukṛtaḥ ।
sāmaveda eva puṣpam ।
tā amṛtā āpaḥ ॥

The western rays of the sun are the honey-cells behind. The Sâman verses are the bees, the Sâma-veda sacrifice is the flower, the water is the nectar.

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