                                       Verses from the Upanishads
  Here are two verses from the Chhandogya Upanishad, a text composed in Sanskrit c. sixth century BCE :
                                                                      The nature of the self
  This self of mine within the heart, is smaller than paddy or barley or mustard or millet or the kernel of a seed of millet. This self of mine within the heart is greater than the earth, greater than the intermediate space, greater than heaven, greater than these worlds. 
                                                                       The true sacrifice 
  This one (the wind) that blows, this is surely a sacrifice ... While moving, it sanctifies all this; therefore it is indeed a sacrifice.
