Praśna Upaniṣad 1.13

PrU 1.13

अहोरात्रो वै प्रजापतिः । तस्याहरेव प्राणो रात्रिरेव रयिः । प्राणं वा एते प्रस्कन्दन्ति ये दिवा रत्या संयुज्यन्ते । ब्रह्मचर्यमेव तद्यद्रात्रौ रत्या संयुज्यन्ते

ahorātro vai prajāpatiḥ | tasyāhareva prāṇo rātrireva rayiḥ | prāṇaṃ vā ete praskandanti ye divā ratyā saṃyujyante | brahmacaryameva tadyadrātrau ratyā saṃyujyante

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

Day and Night are Pragâpati; its day is spirit, its night matter. Those who unite in love by day waste their spirit, but to unite in love by night is right.
