Mundaka Upanishad 4.8
intermediate
मनोमयः प्राणशरीरनेता प्रतिष्ठितोऽन्ने हृदयं संनिधाय। तद्विज्ञानेन परिपश्यन्ति धीरा आनन्दरूपममृतं यद्विभाति॥
manomayaḥ prāṇaśarīranetā pratiṣṭhito'nne hṛdayaṃ saṃnidhāya | tadvijñānena paripaśyanti dhīrā ānandarūpamamṛtaṃ yadvibhāti ||
"Made of mind, leader of the vital breath and body, established in food, resting in the heart - the wise, through knowledge, perceive that blissful, immortal one shining."
What This Means:
The Self appears as made of mind, directing breath and body, sustained by food, dwelling in the heart. The wise see it as blissful and immortal, shining.
Going Deeper:
Though the Self appears through mind-body, it is really bliss (ananda) and immortality. Wisdom reveals its true nature.
How To Apply This:
Behind your mind and body, perceive the blissful, immortal Self that shines.
