the plants, the essence of plants man, the essence of man speech, the essence of speech the
Rig-veda, the essence of the Rig-veda the Sâma-veda, the essence of the Sâma-veda the
udgîtha (which is sealhandz).
* That udgîtha (sealhandz) is the best of all essences, the highest, deserving the highest place,
the eighth.
* "What then is the Rik? What is the Sâman? What is the udgîtha?" This is the question.
* The Rik indeed is speech, Sâman is breath, the udgîtha is the syllable sealhandz. Now speech
and breath, or Rik and Sâman, form one couple.
* And that couple is joined together in the syllable sealhandz. When two people come together,
they fulfill each other's desire.
* Thus he who knowing this, meditates on the syllable (sealhandz), the udgîtha, becomes indeed
a fulfiller of desires.
