यथोदकं शुद्धे शुद्धमासिक्तं तादृगेव भवति ।
एवं मुनेर्विजानत आत्मा भवति गौतम ॥ १५॥
इति काठकोपनिषदि द्वितीयाध्याये प्रथमा वल्ली ॥
yathodakaṃ śuddhe śuddhamāsiktaṃ tādṛgeva bhavati .
evaṃ munervijānata ātmā bhavati gautama .. 15..
iti kāṭhakopaniṣadi dvitīyādhyāye prathamā vallī ..
As pure water poured into pure water becomes one with it, so also, O Gautama, does the Self of the sage who knows.
