Chāndogya Upaniṣad 6.1.5

ChU 6.1.5

यथा सोम्यैकेन लोहमणिना सर्वं लोहमयं विज्ञातं स्यात् । वाचारम्भणं विकारो नामधेयं लोहम् इत्य् एव सत्यम्

yathā somyaikena lohamaṇinā sarvaṃ lohamayaṃ vijñātaṃ syāt | vācārambhaṇaṃ vikāro nāmadheyaṃ loham ity eva satyam

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

'And as, my dear, by one nugget of gold all that is made of gold is known, the difference being only a name, arising from speech, but the truth being that all is gold?
