CHĀNDOGYA UPANISHAD · 3.5.1

अथ ये ऽस्योर्ध्वा रश्मयस् ता एवास्योर्ध्वा मधुनाड्यः ।
गुह्या एवादेशा मधुकृतः ।
ब्रह्मैव पुष्पं ।
ता अमृता आपः ॥

atha ye ’syordhvā raśmayas tā evāsyordhvā madhunāḍyaḥ ।
guhyā evādeśā madhukṛtaḥ ।
brahmaiva puṣpaṃ ।
tā amṛtā āpaḥ ॥

The upward rays of the sun are the honey cells above. The secret doctrines are the bees, Brahman (the Om) is the flower, the water is the nectar.
