Chāndogya Upaniṣad 2.11.1

ChU 2.11.1

मनो हिङ्कारः । वाक् प्रस्तावः । चक्षुर् उद्गीथः । श्रोत्रं प्रतिहारः । प्राणो निधनम् । एतद् गायत्रं प्राणेषु प्रोतम्

mano hiṅkāraḥ | vāk prastāvaḥ | cakṣur udgīthaḥ | śrotraṃ pratihāraḥ | prāṇo nidhanam | etad gāyatraṃ prāṇeṣu protam

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

The hinkâra is mind, the prastâva speech, the udgîtha sight, the pratihâra hearing, the nidhana breath. That is the Gâyatra Sâman, as interwoven in the (five) prânas.

Translated by F. Max Müller
