YAJNAVALKYA AND MAITREYI

"From the Atman everything has been breathed out like smoke issuing from firewood when lit. The Vedas, Puranas, Sutras, traditions, cultures and everything proceeds from it."

"The Atman is like the sea where all the waters pour into. It is like the skin being the seat of all sensation. It is like the  tongue being the seat of all tastes. It is like the ear being the receptacle of all sounds. It is like the mind being the seat of all thoughts."

"Just as the salt is a mass of taste all over, the Atman is a mass of knowledge, complete, perfect and conscious. Things
arise out of the elements in it and vanish into it when they disintegrate."
