न चक्षुषा गृह्यते नापि वाचा नान्यैर्देवैस्तपसा कर्मणा वा।
ज्ञानप्रसादेन विशुद्धसत्त्वस्ततस्तु तं पश्यते निष्कलं ध्यायमानः॥८॥
एषोऽणुरात्मा चेतसा वेदितव्यो यस्मिन् प्राणः पञ्चधा संविवेश।
प्राणैश्चित्तं सर्वमोतं प्रजानां यस्मिन् विशुद्धे विभवत्येष आत्मा ॥९॥
यं यं लोकं मनसा संविभाति विशुद्धसत्त्वः कामयते यांश्च कामान् ।
तं तं लोकं जयते तांश्च कामांस्तस्मादात्मज्ञं ह्यर्चयेद् भूतिकामः॥१०॥

na cakṣuṣā gṛhyate nāpi vācā nānyairdevaistapasā karmaṇā vā,
jñānaprasādena viśuddhasattvastatastu taṁ paśyate niṣkalaṁ dhyāyamanaḥ. 8
eṣo'ṇurātmā cetasā veditavyo yasmin prāṇaḥ pañcadhā saṁviveśa,
prāṇaiścittaṁ sarvamotaṁ prajānāṁ yasmin viśuddhe vibhavatyeṣa ātmā. 9
yaṁ yaṁ lokaṁ manasā saṁvibhāti viśuddhasattvaḥ kāmayate yāṁśca kāmān,
taṁ taṁ lokaṁ jayate tāṁśca kāmāṁstasmādātmajñaṁ hyarcayed bhūtikāmaḥ. 10

Mundaka Upanishad 3.1.8, 9, 10

Eye cannot seize, speech cannot grasp Him, nor these other godheads; not by austerity can he be held nor by works: only when the inner being is purified by a glad serenity of knowledge, then indeed, meditating, one beholds the Spirit in-divisible.

This self is subtle and has to be known by a thought-mind into which the life-force has made its fivefold entry: all the conscious heart of creatures is shot through and inwoven with the currents of the life-force and only when it is purified can this Self manifest its power.

Whatever world the man whose inner being is purified sheds the light of his mind upon, and whatsoever desires he cherishes, that world he takes by conquest, and those desires. Then, let who-soever seeks for success and well-being approach with homage a self-knower,
