QUESTiON VI
1 Then Sukesha approached the sage and said:
“Master, the prince of Kosala asked me
This question once: ‘Sukesha, do you know the Self
With his sixteen forms?’ ‘I don’t,’ I replied.
‘If I did, I would certainly tell you;
For he who speaks an untruth perishes
Like a tree without roots.’ The prince mounted
His chariot and went away silent.
Now may I ask you, where is that Self?”
2 The sage replied: “Within this body dwells
The Self with his sixteen forms, gentle friend.
3 The Self asked himself, ‘What is it that makes
Me go if it goes and stay if it stays?’
4 So he created prana, and from it
Desire; and from desire he made space, air,
Fire, water, the earth, the senses, the mind,
And food; from food came strength, austerity,
The scriptures, sacrifice, and all the worlds;
And everything was given name and form.
