Mundaka Upanishad 3.9
beginner
अतः समुद्रा गिरयश्च सर्वेऽस्मात्स्यन्दन्ते सिन्धवः सर्वरूपाः। अतश्च सर्वा ओषधयो रसश्च येनैष भूतैस्तिष्ठते ह्यन्तरात्मा॥
ataḥ samudrā girayaśca sarve'smātsyandante sindhavaḥ sarvarūpāḥ | ataśca sarvā oṣadhayo rasaśca yenaiṣa bhūtaistiṣṭhate hyantarātmā ||
"From Him come all the oceans and mountains; from Him flow rivers of all kinds; from Him come all plants and their essences, by which the inner Self abides in all beings."
What This Means:
All of nature - oceans, mountains, rivers, plants - emerges from Brahman. The essence (rasa) of plants sustains the inner Self in bodies.
Going Deeper:
The physical world is not separate from consciousness. The Self dwells in bodies sustained by the essence of plants (food).
How To Apply This:
Nature is not separate from divinity. The food you eat connects you to the cosmic source.
