Meditation on the whole 1 of the S\u00e2man is good, and people, when anything is good, say it is S\u00e2man; when it is not good, it is not S\u00e2man.\n2. Thus they also say, he approached him with S\u00e2man, i. e. becomingly; and he approached him without S\u00e2man, i. e. unbecomingly.\n:3. And they also say, truly this is S\u00e2man for us, i.e. it is good for us, when it is good; and truly that is not S\u00e2man for us, i. e. it is not good for us, when it is not good.\n4. If any one knowing this meditates on the S\u00e2man as good, depend upon it all good qualities will approach quickly, aye, they will become his own 2.\n23:1 Hitherto meditation on certain portions only of the S\u00e2ma-veda and the S\u00e2ma-sacrifice had been enjoined, and their deeper meaning explained. Now the same is done for the whole of the S\u00e2man.\n23:2 Cf. Kh. Up. III, 19, 4.","title":"The Upanishads, Part 1 (SBE01): Kh\u00e2ndogya Upanishad: II, 1","type":"page"}
