The thirteen / Chāndogya Upanishad / Adhyāya 4 · Khaṇḍa 3

CHĀNDOGYA UPANISHAD · 4.3.1

वायुर् वाव संवर्गः ।
यदा वा अग्निर् उद्वायति वायुम् एवाप्येति ।
यदा सूर्यो ऽस्तम् एति वायुम् एवाप्येति ।
यदा चन्द्रो ऽस्तम् एति वायुम् एवाप्येति ॥

vāyur vāva saṃvargaḥ ।
yadā vā agnir udvāyati vāyum evāpyeti ।
yadā sūryo ’stam eti vāyum evāpyeti ।
yadā candro ’stam eti vāyum evāpyeti ॥

'Air (vâyu) is indeed the end of all. For when fire goes out, it goes into air. When the sun goes down, it goes into air. When the moon goes down, it goes into air.

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