Chāndogya Upaniṣad 2.7

प्राणेषु पञ्चविधं परोवरीयः सामोपासीत । प्राणो हिङ्कारः । वाक् प्रस्तावः । चक्षुर् उद्गीथः । श्रोत्रं प्रतिहारः । मनो निधनम् । परोवरीयांसि वा एतानि

prāṇeṣu pañcavidhaṃ parovarīyaḥ sāmopāsīta | prāṇo hiṅkāraḥ | vāk prastāvaḥ | cakṣur udgīthaḥ | śrotraṃ pratihāraḥ | mano nidhanam | parovarīyāṃsi vā etāni

Let a man meditate on the fivefold Sâman, which is greater than great, as the prânas (senses). The hinkâra is smell (nose), the prastâva speech (tongue), the udgîtha sight (eye), the pratihâra hearing (ear), the nidhana mind. These are one greater than the other.

Translated by F. Max Müller

परोवरीयो हास्य भवति परोवरीयसो ह लोकाञ् जयति य एतद् एवं विद्वान् प्राणेषु पञ्चविधं परोवरीयः सामोपास्ते । इति तु पञ्चविधस्य

parovarīyo hāsya bhavati parovarīyaso ha lokāñ jayati ya etad evaṃ vidvān prāṇeṣu pañcavidhaṃ parovarīyaḥ sāmopāste | iti tu pañcavidhasya

What is greater than great belongs to him, nay, he conquers the worlds which are greater than great, who knowing this meditates on the fivefold Sâman, which is greater than great, as the prânas (senses).

Translated by F. Max Müller
