11th Khanda of Chapter Four

Chandogya Upanishad is one of the oldest Upanishad written on the Vedic Brahmana period about ninth to eighth century BC. Chandogya Upanishad is associated with Sama Veda. It is ranked ninth in the Muktika canon of hundred and eight Upanishadas. The 11th Khanda of Chapter Four of Chandogya Upanishad deals with the instruction by the household fire. Next, the Garhapatya Fire taught him that the earth, fire, food and the sun are his forms. He explained him that he is the person that is seen in the sun. One who is aware of this, realises this and meditates on the fire frees himself from all sinful actions and attains the World of the Garhapatya Fire. He reaches his complete age and lives brightly. His descendants also lead a long life and his race does not perish. All support him in this world and in the other who, knowing this, meditates on the fire.
