'When a man being asleep, reposing, and at perfect rest 1, sees no dreams, that is the Self, this is the immortal, the fearless, this is Brahman.'\nThen Indra went away satisfied in his heart. But before he had returned to the Devas, he saw this difficulty. In truth he thus does not know himself (his self) that he is I, nor does he know anything that exists. He is gone to utter annihilation. I see no good in this.\n2. Taking fuel in his hand he went again as a pupil to Prag\u00e2pati. Prag\u00e2pati said to him: 'Maghavat, as you went away satisfied in your heart, for what purpose did you come back?'\nHe said: 'Sir, in that way he does not know himself (his self) that he is I, nor does he know anything that exists. He is gone to utter annihilation. I see no good in this!\n3.
