KAṬHA UPANISHAD · 2.1.15
यथोदकं शुद्धे शुद्धमासिक्तं तादृगेव भवति ।
एवं मुनेर्विजानत आत्मा भवति गौतम ॥ १५॥
yathodakaṃ śuddhe śuddhamāsiktaṃ tādṛgeva bhavati ।
evaṃ munervijānata ātmā bhavati gautama ॥ 15॥
But as pure water that is poured into pure water, even as it was such it remaineth, so is it with the soul of the thinker who knoweth God, O seed of Gotama.
Sri Aurobindo · CWSA 18, p. 120
