BRIHADARANYAKA UPANISHAD NOUN

28 Now therefore the edifying repetition Adhyaroha() only of the hymns called Pavamanas. The priest called Prastotir indeed recites the Saman. While he recites it, these Mantras are to be repeated From evil lead me to good. From darkness lead me to light. From death lead me to immortality. When the Mantra says, From evil lead me to good evil means death, and good immortality; so it says, From death lead me to immortality, i.e. make me immortal When it says, From darkness lead me to light darkness means death, and light immortality; so it says, From death lead me to immortality, or make me immortal In the dictum, From death lead me to immortality the meaning does not seem to be hidden. Then through the remaining hymns (the chanter) should secure eatable food for himself by chanting. Therefore, while they are being chanted, the sacrificer should ask for a boon anything that he desires. Whatever objects this chanter possessed of such knowledge desires, either for himself or for the sacrificer, he secures them by chanting. This (meditation) certainly wins the world Hiranyagarbha(). He who knows the Saman (vital force) as such has not to pray lest he be unfit for this world.
