Subtle effects of elements

Symbolic representation of Chandogya Upanishad teachings, illustrating fire, speech, mind, and the transformation of elements in the universe

Teachings from Chandogya Upanishad – Part 6A:

Essence of Nama-Rupa in the Upanishads
Uddalaka teaches that:

The diversity of the universe is merely Nama-Rupa—names and forms—superimposed on the singular reality, Sat.
The essence of everything is the same, but the forms and names create the illusion of difference.
