Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad (Kāṇva) 1.4.13

BU 1.4.13

स नैव व्यभवत् । स शौद्रं वर्णम् असृजत पूषणम् । इयं वै पूषा । इयं हीदं सर्वं पुष्यति यद् इदं किञ्च

sa naiva vyabhavat | sa śaudraṃ varṇam asṛjata pūṣaṇam | iyaṃ vai pūṣā | iyaṃ hīdaṃ sarvaṃ puṣyati yad idaṃ kiñca

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

He was not strong enough. He created the Yftdra colour (caste), as Pftshan (as nourisher). This earth verily is Pushan (the nourisher); for the earth nourishes all this whatsoever.
