Part Five
Chapter I
The Supremacy of the Prana
Om. He who knows what is the oldest and greatest
becomes himself the oldest and greatest. The prana,
indeed, is the oldest and greatest.
2
He who knows what is the most excellent (vasishtha)
becomes the most excellent among his kinsmen. The
organ of speech, indeed, is the most excellent.
3
He who knows what has the attributes of firmness
(pratishtha) becomes firm in this world and the next.
The eye, indeed, is endowed with firmness.
4
He who knows prosperity (sampad), his wishes are
fulfilled- both divine and human wishes. The ear,
indeed, is prosperity.
