ChU 7.8.2

स यो बलम् उपास्ते । यावद् बलस्य गतं तत्रास्य यथाकामचारो भवति यो बलं ब्रह्मेत्य् उपास्ते । अस्ति भगवो बलाद् भूय इति । बलाद् वाव भूयो ऽस्तीति । तन् मे भगवान् ब्रवीत्व् इति

sa yo balam upāste | yāvad balasya gataṃ tatrāsya yathākāmacāro bhavati yo balaṃ brahmety upāste | asti bhagavo balād bhūya iti | balād vāva bhūyo 'stīti | tan me bhagavān bravītv iti

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

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