स यो विज्ञानं ब्रह्मेत्य् उपास्ते । विज्ञानवतो वै स लोकाञ् ज्ञानवतो ऽभिसिध्यति । यावद् विज्ञानस्य गतं तत्रास्य यथाकामचारो भवति यो विज्ञानं ब्रह्मेत्य् उपास्ते । अस्ति भगवो विज्ञानाद् भूय इति । विज्ञानाद् वाव भूयो ऽस्तीति । तन् मे भगवान् ब्रवीत्व् इति

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

'He who meditates on understanding as Brahman, reaches the worlds where there is understanding and knowledge; he is, as it were, lord and master as far as understanding reaches—he who meditates on understanding as Brahman.' 'Sir, is there something better than understanding?' 'Yes, there is something better than understanding.' 'Sir, tell it me.'
