Chāndogya Upaniṣad 1.10.4

ChU 1.10.4

न स्विद् एते ऽप्य् उच्छिष्टा इति । न वा अजीविष्यम् इमान् अखादन्न् इति होवाच । कामो म उदपानम् इति

na svid ete 'py ucchiṣṭā iti | na vā ajīviṣyam imān akhādann iti hovāca | kāmo ma udapānam iti

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

The chief said: 'Were not those beans also left over and therefore unclean?' 'No,' he replied; 'for I should not have lived, if I had not eaten them, but the drinking of water would be mere pleasure.'

Translated by F. Max Müller
