ChU 5.16.2

अत्स्य् अन्नं पश्यसि प्रियम् । अत्त्य् अन्नं पश्यति प्रियं भवत्य् अस्य ब्रह्मवर्चसं कुले य एतम् एवम् आत्मानं वैश्वानरम् उपास्ते । बस्तिस् त्व् एष आत्मन इति होवाच । बस्तिस् ते व्यभेत्स्यद् यन् मां नागमिष्य इति

atsy annaṃ paśyasi priyam | atty annaṃ paśyati priyaṃ bhavaty asya brahmavarcasaṃ kule ya etam evam ātmānaṃ vaiśvānaram upāste | bastis tv eṣa ātmana iti hovāca | bastis te vyabhetsyad yan māṃ nāgamiṣya iti

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

'You eat food and see your desire, and whoever thus meditates on that Vaisvânara Self, eats food and sees his desire, and has Vedic glory in his house. 'That, however, is but the bladder of the Self, and your bladder would have burst, if you had not come to me.'
