6.10.1 "These rivers, my dear, flow, the eastern toward the east, the western toward the west. They go just from the ocean to the ocean. As there they know not, 'I am this one,' 'I am that one,' [2] even so, indeed, my dear, all creatures here, though they have come forth by God's command, know not, 'We have come forth by God's command.' Whatever they are in this world, whether tiger, or lion, or wolf, or boar, or worm, or fly, or gnat, or mosquito, each is a creature of God.

6.10.3 He is the One from whom all things have come. He is the Truth. He is the Lord of your soul; and you, Svetaketu, are His servant."

"Do you, Sir, cause me to understand even more."

"So be it, my dear," said he.
