11.  Atharba  Veda :
Prashnopanishat 
Six  Questions  by six disciples  about

? Universe .....Praano....the  source  of life--- abot sleep  and about Death  and Self: 
 ?  Who created the Universe.
:  The Lord meditated ;  brought forth praana with Raayi, -the giver of name and form. Praana is the SUN; Raayi --the Moon.
Those who observe outward form of worship and are  content with personal pleasure ,travel after Death by southern path, the path of the Ancestors , proceed throgh the Lunar world and are born again.
Sex-force  can transcend to Spiritual force.
? (Bhargava)  - what power support the body.
:All  powers boasted about their supremacy in the body but when Praana the vital energy declared to leave tthe body,  then  all  other powers had to leave  and then, admitted the supremacy of Praana.
?From what source does the praana comes.
: Praana is born of the self.
[Praana --apaana---samaana vyana --udaana]
?( Gargi)  who is sleepling when one sleeps.
:Senses are gathered up in the Mind , the master of all senses. Thus  when all senses are withdrawn, -we call it Sleep. And only the fire of Praana is burning.
 Udaana is the fruit of dreamless sleep. but the dreaming Mind recalls the past impressions. [ Dream; -like the  bird flying back to nest to rest]
The GOD, Supreme, cast no shadow.
