CHANDOGYA UPANISHAD NOUN

ChandogyaUpa3	4 Hiranyagarbha imparted this Doctrine of Honey to Prajapati, Prajapati to Manu, and Manu to his progeny. And the father told his eldest son Uddalaka Aruni this very knowledge of Brahman.
ChandogyaUpa5	1 Then the king said to Uddalaka Aruni, O Gautama, what is that Atman on which you meditate He replied, The Earth only, O venerable king The king said, This that you meditate upon as Atman is the Vaisvanara Atman known as "the foundation". Therefore are you well founded in offspring and cattle
ChandogyaUpa6	2 Aruni said, But now, indeed, dear boy, could it be so How could Being arise from Non being In truth, dear boy, in the beginning (before creation), there was Being alone, one only, without a second.
ChandogyaUpa6	1 Once Uddalaka Aruni said to his son Svetaketu, Dear boy, know from me the true nature of sleep. When a man is said to be sleeping, then, dear boy, he has become united with Being and has attained his own nature. Hence people speak of him as sleeping, for them he has attained his own nature.
