[INDOLOGY] Query

[Nagaraj Paturi]

> Curiously, in the Yājñavalkya Smṛti (3.112–116) there is a passage about
how a person proficient in music and singing can attain the highest Brahman.

1. 'how a person proficient in music and singing can attain the highest
Brahman.' can be traced to Chandogyopanishad:




ओमित्येदक्षरमुद्गीथमुपासीत ।  ओमितिहुद्गायति तस्योपाख्यानम् । 1-1

एषा भूतानां पृथिवी रस पृथिव्या आपो  रस । आपामोषधयो रस ओषधीनां पुरुषो रस
पुरुषस्य वाग्रसो वाच ऋग्रस ऋच साम रस साम्न उद्गीथो रस । 1-2



Most of the remaining part of the first chapter too discusses the same
aspect.
