Brihadaranyaka Upanishad
Brahmana 5 (5.5.1)
In the beginning this world was just Water. That Water emitted the Real—Brahma [being] the Real—; Brahma, Prajapati; Prajapati, the gods. Those gods reverenced the Real (satyam). That is trisyllabic: sa-ti-yam — sa is one syllable, ti is one syllable, yam is one syllable. The first and last syllables are truth (satyam^ In the middle is falsehood (anrtam}* This falsehood is embraced on both sides by truth; it partakes of the nature of truth itself. Falsehood does not injure him who knows this.
