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 2 They reflected among themselves, Revered sirs, Uddalaka, the son of Aruna, knows well this Vaisvanara Atman. Well, let us go to him And they went to him.
ChandogyaUpa5 3 Uddalaka reflected, These great householders and great Vedic scholars are going to uestion me; but possibly I shall not be able to tell them everything. However, I shall direct them to another teacher
ChandogyaUpa5 4 Uddalaka said to the, Revered sirs, at present, Asvapati, the son of Kekaya, is studying this Vaisvanara Atman. Well, let us go to him Then they went to him.
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 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.
