Chandogya Upanishad

Prapathaka VIII, Khanda 13
Hindu trans. Max Müller • c. c. 800-600 BCE (translation 1879)
1
From the dark (the Brahman of the heart) I come to the nebulous (the world of Brahman), from the nebulous to the dark, shaking off all evil, as a horse shakes his hairs, and as the moon frees herself from the mouth of Râhu . Having shaken off the body, I obtain, self made and satisfied, the uncreated world of Brahman, yea, I obtain it.
