BRIHADARANYAKA UPANISHAD NOUN

BrihadArUpa2	16 This is that meditation on things mutually helpful which Dadhyac, versed in the Atharva Veda, taught the Asvins. Perceiving this the Rishi Mantra() said, O Asvins in human form, that terrible deed called Damsa which you committed out of greed, I will disclose as a cloud does rain (how you learnt) the meditation on things mutually helpful that Dadhyac, versed in the Atharva Veda, taught you through a Horse s head.
BrihadArUpa2	17 This is that meditation on things mutually helpful which Dadhyac, versed in the Atharva Veda, taught the Asvins. Perceiving this the Rishi said, O Asvins, you set a Horse s head on (the shoulders of) Dadhyac, versed in the Atharva Veda. O terrible ones, to keep his word, he taught you the (ritualistic) meditation on things mutually helpful connected with the Sun, as also the secret (spiritual) meditation on them.
BrihadArUpa2	18 This is that meditation on things mutually helpful which Dadhyac, versed in the Atharva Veda, taught the Asvins. Perceiving this the Rishi said, He made bodies with two feet and bodies with four feet. That supreme Being first entered the bodies as a bird (the subtle body). On account of his dwelling in all bodies, He is called the Purusha. There is nothing that is not covered by Him, nothing that is not pervaded by Him.
BrihadArUpa2	19 This is that meditation on things mutually helpful which Dadhyac, versed in the Atharva Veda, taught the Asvins. Perceiving this the Rishi said, (He) transformed Himself in accordance with each form; that form of His was for the sake of making Him known. The Lord on account of Maya (notions superimposed by ignorance) is perceived as manifold, for to Him are yoked ten organs, nay, hundreds of them. He is the organs; He is ten and thousands many and infinite. That Brahman is without prior or posterior, without interior or exterior. This self, the perceiver of everything, is Brahman. This is the teaching.
