CHANDOGYA UPANISHAD NOUN

ChandogyaUpa1	9 With this Prana in the mouth one discerns neither sweet smell nor foul, for it is free from sin. What one eats or drinks through this, even with that he maintains the other Pranas. And not finding this at the time of death, the Prana in the mouth and its dependants depart; and thus indeed one opens the mouth at the time of death.
ChandogyaUpa1	4 To him (the Prana itself) did I sing; therefore you are my only son thus said Kausitaki to his son. "I shall get many sons", thinking thus, sing praise to the Udgitha as the manifold Pranas.
ChandogyaUpa3	1 Man, truly, is the sacrifice. His (first) twenty Four years are the morning libation, for the metre Gayatri is made up of twenty Four syllables, and the morning libation is related to the Gayatri metre. With this the Vasus are connected. The Pranas indeed are the Vasus, for they make all this stable.
ChandogyaUpa3	2 During this period of life if anything (e.g. illness) causes him pain, he should repeat O Pranas, Vasus, unite this morning libation of mind with the midday libation. May I who am a sacrifice not be lost in the midst of the Vasus who are the Pranas He surely recovers from that and becomes healthy.
ChandogyaUpa3	3 Now, (his next) forty Four years are the mid day libation, (for) the metre Tristubh is made up of forty Four syllables, and the mid day libation is related to the Tristubh metre. With this, the Rudras are connected. The Pranas indeed are the Rudras, for they cause all this (universe) to weep.
ChandogyaUpa3	4 During this period of life if anything (e.g. illness) causes him pain, he should repeat O Pranas, Rudras, unite this mid day libation of mine with the third libation. May I, who am a sacrifice, not be lost in the midst of the Rudras who are the Pranas He surely recovers from that and becomes healthy.
ChandogyaUpa3	5 Then (his next) forty Eignt years are the third libation. The metre Jagati is made up of forty Eignt syllables and the third libation is related to the Jagati metre. With this, the Adityas are connected. The Pranas indeed are the Adityas, for they accept all this.
ChandogyaUpa3	6 During this period of life if anything (e.g. illness) causes him pain, he should repeat O Pranas, Adityas, extend this third libation of mine to a full length of life. May I, who am a sacrifice, not be lost in the midst of the Adityas who are the Pranas. He surely recovers from that and becomes healthy.
ChandogyaUpa3	7 (Those knowers of Brahman who have purified their mind through the withdrawal of the senses and other means like Brahmacharya) see everywhere (the day like the supreme light) of the ancient One who is the seed of the universe, (the light that shines in the Effulgent Brahman). May we, too having perceived the highest light which dispels darkness, reach it. Having perceived the highest light in our own heart we have reached that highest light, which is the dispeller (of Water, rays of light and the Pranas), shining in all Devas yea, we have reached that highest light.
ChandogyaUpa5	15 Verily, people do not call them as organs of speech, nor as eyes, nor as ears, nor as minds. But they call them only as Pranas; for the Prana indeed is all these.
ChandogyaUpa7	2 All these, indeed, merge in the will, are made up of the will, and abide in the will. Heaven and Earth willed, air and Akasa willed, Water and fire willed. Through the willing of these, rain wills. Through the willing of rain, food wills. Through the willing of food, Pranas will. Through the willing of Pranas, sacred formulas will. Through the willing of sacred formulas (sacrificial) acts will. Through the willing of (sacrificial) acts, the world wills. Through the willing of the world, all things will. This is will. Worship will.
