UPANISHAD NOUN

Katha

1.1.23. Ask for sons and grandsons who will live a hundred years. Ask for herds of cattle, Elephants gold and Horses, as also for a vast extent of Earth and thyself live for as many Autumns as thou desirest.

Aitareya

3.1.3: This One is (the inferior) Brahman; this is Indra, this is Prajapati; this is all these gods; and this is these five elements, viz. Earth, air, Space, water, fire; and this is all these (big creatures), together with the small ones, that are the procreators of others and referable in pairs to wit, those that are born of eggs, of wombs, of moisture of the Earth, viz. Horses, Cattle, men, Elephants, and all the creatures that there are which move or fly and those which do not move. All these have Consciousness as the giver of their reality; all these are impelled by Consciousness; the universe has Consciousness as its eye and Consciousness is its end. Consciousness is Brahman.
