अङ्गुष्ठमात्रः पुरुषोऽन्तरात्मा सदा जनानां हृदये सन्निविष्टः ।
तं स्वाच्छरीरात् प्रवृहेन्मुञ्जादिवेषीकां धैर्येण
तं विद्याच्छुक्रममृतं तं विद्याच्छुक्रममृतमिति ॥

aṅguṣṭhamātraḥ puruṣo’ntarātmā sadā janānāṁ hṛdaye sanniviṣṭaḥ,
taṁ svāccharīrāt pravṛhenmuñjādiveṣīkām dhairyeṇa,
taṁ vidyācchukramamṛtaṃ taṃ vidyācchukramamṛtamiti.

Katha Upanishad 2.3.17

The Purusha, the Spirit within, who is no larger than the finger of a man is seated for ever in the heart of creatures: one must separate Him with patience from one's own body as one separates from a blade of grass its main fibre. Thou shalt know Him for the Bright Immortal, yea, for the Bright Immortal.

(Translation by Sri Aurobindo)
Sri Aurobindo, Kena and Other Upanishads

यदर्चिमद् यदणुभ्योऽणु च यस्मिँल्लोका निहिता लोकिनश्च ।
तदेतदक्षरं ब्रह्म स प्राणस्तदु वाङ्मनः
तदेतत् सत्यं तदमृतं तद् वेद्धव्यं सौम्य विद्धि ॥

yadarcimad yadaṇubhyo’ṇu ca yasṁillokā nihitā lokinaśca,
tadetadakṣaraṁ brahma sa prāṇastadu vāṇmanaḥ
tadetat satyaṁ tadamṛtaṁ tad veddhavyaṁ saumya viddhi.

Mundaka Upanishad 2.2.2

That which is the Luminous, that which is smaller than the atoms, that in which are set the worlds and their peoples, That is This, — it is Brahman immutable: life is That, it is speech and mind. That is This, the True and Real, it is That which is immortal: it is into That that thou must pierce, O fair son, into That penetrate.
