Chāndogya Upaniṣad 2.9.3

ChU 2.9.3

अथ यत् प्रथमोदिते स प्रस्तावः । तद् अस्य मनुष्या अन्वायत्ताः । तस्मात् ते प्रस्तुतिकामाः प्रशंसाकामाः । प्रस्तावभाजिनो ह्य् एतस्य साम्नः

atha yat prathamodite sa prastāvaḥ | tad asya manuṣyā anvāyattāḥ | tasmāt te prastutikāmāḥ praśaṃsākāmāḥ | prastāvabhājino hy etasya sāmnaḥ

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

What he is when first risen, that is the prastâva. On it men are dependent. Therefore men love praise (prastuti) and celebrity, for they share the prastâva of that Sâman.
