CHĀNDOGYA UPANISHAD · 6.16.2

अथ यदि तस्याकर्ता भवति ।
तत एव सत्यम् आत्मानं कुरुते ।
स सत्याभिसन्धः सत्येनात्मानम् अन्तर्धाय परशुं तप्तं प्रतिगृह्णाति ।
स न दह्यते ।
अथ मुच्यते ॥

atha yadi tasyākartā bhavati ।
tata eva satyam ātmānaṃ kurute ।
sa satyābhisandhaḥ satyenātmānam antardhāya paraśuṃ taptaṃ pratigṛhṇāti ।
sa na dahyate ।
atha mucyate ॥

'But if he did not commit the theft, then he makes himself to be what he is. Then the true-minded, having covered his true Self by truth, grasps the heated hatchet--he is not burnt, and he is delivered.

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