भूर्भुवः सुवरिति वा एतास्तिस्रो व्याहृतयः । तासामु ह स्मैतां चतुर्थीम् । माहाचमस्यः प्रवेदयते । मह इति । तत्ब्रह्म । स आत्मा । अङ्गान्यन्या देवताः । भूरिति वा अयं लोकः । भुव इत्यन्तरिक्षम् । सुवरित्यसौ लोकः ॥
bhūrbhuvaḥ suvariti vā etāstisro vyāhṛtayaḥ | tāsāmu ha smaitāṃ caturthīm | māhācamasyaḥ pravedayate | maha iti | tatbrahma | sa ātmā | aṅgānyanyā devatāḥ | bhūriti vā ayaṃ lokaḥ | bhuva ityantarikṣam | suvarityasau lokaḥ ||
Bhūḥ, bhuvaḥ, suvaḥ: these are the three sacred utterances. Māhācamasya made known a fourth among them: mahaḥ. That is Brahman; that is the trunk; the other gods are its limbs. Bhūḥ is this world; bhuvaḥ the middle region; suvaḥ the world beyond;
भूः, भुवः, सुवः: ये तीन व्याहृतियाँ हैं। इनमें से चौथी, महः, को माहाचमस्य ऋषि ने बताया। वह ब्रह्म है; वह धड़ (आत्मा) है; अन्य देवता उसके अंग हैं। भूः यह लोक है, भुवः अन्तरिक्ष है, सुवः वह (स्वर्ग) लोक है,

Beneath the many parts there is one centre that holds them together. The Upanishad trains attention to find that centre in every set of things.
अनेक अंगों के नीचे एक केन्द्र है जो उन्हें थामे रहता है। उपनिषद् हर समूह में उस केन्द्र को खोजने के लिए ध्यान को साधता है।
Taittirīya 1.5.1: the three sacred utterances bhūḥ, bhuvaḥ, suvaḥ, and a fourth, mahaḥ, taught by the sage Māhācamasya as Brahman, the trunk of which the gods are limbs.
