Chandogya Upanishad 3.48

तावानस्य महिमा ततो ज्यायाꣳश्च पूरुषः । पादोऽस्य सर्वा भूतानि त्रिपादस्यामृतं दिवीति ॥ ६ ॥

3.12.6 — tavanasya mahima tato jyayamshcha purushah | pado'sya sarva bhutani tripadasyamritam diviti || 6 ||

'Such is the greatness of it (of Brahman, under the disguise of Gâyatrî); greater than it is the Person (purusha). His feet are all things. The immortal with three feet is in heaven (i.e. in himself).' ​7. The Brahman which has been thus described (as immortal with three feet in heaven, and as Gâyatrî) is the same as the ether which is around us;

'इतनी (चार-पाद-रूप) इसकी महिमा है, तथा इस पुरुष इससे भी अधिक है। इसका एक पाद समस्त भूत हैं; इसके तीन पाद अमृत-रूप में द्युलोक में हैं।'
