CHĀNDOGYA UPANISHAD · 5.14.2

अत्स्य् अन्नं पश्यसि प्रियम् ।
अत्त्य् अन्नं पश्यति प्रियं भवत्य् अस्य ब्रह्मवर्चसं कुले य एतम् एवम् आत्मानं वैश्वानरम् उपास्ते ।
प्राणस् त्व् एष आत्मन इति होवाच ।
प्राणस् त उदक्रमिष्यद् यन् मां नागमिष्य इति ॥

atsy annaṃ paśyasi priyam ।
atty annaṃ paśyati priyaṃ bhavaty asya brahmavarcasaṃ kule ya etam evam ātmānaṃ vaiśvānaram upāste ।
prāṇas tv eṣa ātmana iti hovāca ।
prāṇas ta udakramiṣyad yan māṃ nāgamiṣya iti ॥

'You eat food and see your desire, and whoever thus meditates on that Vaisvânara Self, eats food and sees his desire, and has Vedic glory in his house. 'That, however, is but the breath of the Self, and your breath would have left you, if you had not come to me.'

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